Valuing options in Heston's stochastic volatility model: Another analytical approach [PDF]
We are concerned with the valuation of European options in Heston's stochastic volatility model with correlation. Based on Mellin transforms we present new closed-form solutions for the price of European options and hedging parameters.

From Skews to a Skewed-t [PDF]
In this paper we present a new methodology to infer the implied risk-neutral distribution function from European-style options. We introduce a skewed version of the Student-t distribution, whose main advantage is that its shape depends on only four ...

A Legendre–Galerkin spectral method for option pricing under regime switching models
The aim of this paper is to investigate an efficient spectral method for pricing European call options under regime-switching models. The main characteristic of this model is to incorporate the change in behavior of the underlying assets depending on ...

A New Proposal for Collection and Generation of Information on Financial Institutions' Risk: the case of derivatives [PDF]
This article aims at providing a new alternative for the collection of information on risks taken by financial institutions, which enables the calculation of risk tools usually used in risk management, such as VaR and stress tests.

A Numerical Method for Pricing Electricity Derivatives for Jump-Diffusion Processes Based on Continuous Time Lattices [PDF]
We present a numerical method for pricing derivatives on electricity prices. The method is based on approximating the generator of the underlying process and can be applied for stochastic processes that are combinations of diusions and jump processes ...

Pricing and Hedging Options in Incomplete Markets: Idiosyncratic Risk, Systematic Risk and Stochastic Volatility [PDF]
Starting from the European option valuation framework of Chauveau & Gatfaoui (2002), we establish the link with stochastic volatility models. And, we propose both a new vision and a general framework for valuing European options in the light of ...
