Forecast Based Pricing of Weather Derivatives [PDF]
Forecasting based pricing of Weather Derivatives (WDs) is a new approach in valuation of contingent claims on nontradable underlyings. Standard techniques are based on historical weather data. Forward-looking information such as meteorological forecasts or the implied market price of risk (MPR) are often not incorporated.

Indifference Pricing of Weather Derivatives
AbstractWeather derivatives are difficult to price due to the nontradability of weather and the absence of liquid secondary markets for these contracts. We use the concept of indifference pricing to develop a model for calculating the willingness to pay for weather insurance.

Density forecasting for weather derivative pricing [PDF]
Weather derivatives enable energy companies to protect themselves against weather risk. Weather ensemble predictions are generated from atmospheric models and consist of multiple future scenarios for a weather variable. They can be used to forecast the density of the payoff from a weather derivative.

A new credit derivatives pricing model under uncertainty process
Due to many uncertainties in the financial market, the pricing process of credit derivatives has not only the characteristic of randomness but also nonrandom uncertainties. Thus, the absence of uncertain factors will make the pricing model and the actual

Pricing Catastrophe Insurance Derivatives [PDF]
We investigate the valuation of catastrophe insurance derivatives that are traded at the Chicago Board of Trade. By modeling the underlying index as a compound Poisson process we give a representation of no-arbitrage price processes using Fourier analysis. This characterization enables us to derive the inverse Fourier transform of prices in closed form
