On the valuation of Paris options: foundational results [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2000
This paper adresses the valuation of the Paris barrier options proposed by Yor, Jeanblanc-Picque, and Chesnay (Advances in Applied Probability, 29(1997), 165-184) using the Laplace transform approach. Based on suggestions by Pliska the notion of Paris options is extended such that their valuation is possible at any point during their lifespan.

The early exercise premium representation for American options on multiply assets [PDF]

open access: yesAppl. Math. Optim. 73 (2016) 99-114, 2013
In the paper we consider the problem of valuation of American options written on dividend-paying assets whose price dynamics follow the classical multidimensional Black and Scholes model. We provide a general early exercise premium representation formula for options with payoff functions which are convex or satisfy mild regularity assumptions. Examples

The Valuation of Volatility Options [PDF]

open access: greenReview of Finance, 2000
This paper examines the valuation of European- and American-style volatility options based on a general equilibrium stochastic volatility framework. Properties of the optimal exercise region and of the option price are provided when volatility follows a general diffusion process.

On the valuation of Asian options: integral representations [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2000
This paper derives integral representations for the Black-Scholes price of arithmetic-average Asian options. Their proof is by Laplace inverting the 1992 Laplace transform of Geman-Yor using complex analytic methods. The analysis ultimately rests on the gamma function which in this sense is at the base of Asian options.

Option Valuation with Conditional Skewness [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Econometrics, 2003
Abstract Index option prices differ systematically from Black–Scholes prices. Out-of-the-money put prices (and in-the-money call prices) are relatively high compared to the Black–Scholes price. Motivated by these empirical facts, we develop a new discrete-time dynamic model of stock returns with inverse Gaussian innovations.

Valuation of Inventories Considering the Fair Value Options [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the University of Oradea: Economic Science, 2008
Our paper represents a pleading for fair value in the specific case of valuating inventories. The real significance and implications of fair value can only be seen after analyzing the topic from different points of view concerning all involved actors ...

Valuation of Wind Energy Projects: A Real Options Approach

open access: yesEnergies, 2014
We address the valuation of an operating wind farm and the finite-lived option to invest in it under different reward/support schemes: a constant feed-in tariff, a premium on top of the electricity market price (either a fixed premium or a variable ...

The Valuation of Options on Capacity

open access: yes, 2003
This chapter represents the core of the present analysis. Its purpose is laying the foundations of a market model consisting of a sequence of the following market sessions: a contract market, where capacity can be reserved, and a spot market, where capacity can be purchased on a short-term basis.

Implicit Options in Life Insurance: Valuation and Risk Management [PDF]

open access: green, 2006
Participating life insurance contracts typically contain various types of implicit options. These implicit options can be very valuable and can thus represent a significant risk to insurance companies if they practice insufficient risk management ...
