Getting real with real options

英文摘要：

We apply a utility-based method to obtain the value of a finite-time investment opportunity when the underlying real asset is not perfectly correlated to a traded financial asset. Using a discrete-time algorithm to calculate the indifference price for this type of real option, we present numerical examples for the corresponding investment thresholds, in particular highlighting their dependence with respect to correlation and risk aversion.

On a Class of Optimal Stopping Problems with Applications to Real Option Theory

We consider an optimal stopping time problem related with many models found in real options problems. The main goal of this work is to bring for the field of real options, different and more realistic pay-off functions, and negative interest rates. Thus, we present analytical solutions for a wide class of pay-off functions, considering quite general assumptions over the model. Also, an extensive and general sensitivity analysis to the solutions, and an economic example which highlight the mathematical difficulties in the standard approaches, are provided.

Asymptotic and Exact Pricing of Options on Variance

We consider the pricing of derivatives written on the discretely sampled realized variance of an underlying security. In the literature, the realized variance is usually approximated by its continuous-time limit, the quadratic variation of the underlying log-price. Here, we characterize the small-time limits of options on both objects. We find that the difference between them strongly depends on whether or not the stock price process has jumps. Subsequently, we propose two new methods to evaluate the price of options on the discretely sampled realized variance. One of the methods is approximat…

Real Options and Threshold Strategies

The paper considers an investment timing problem appearing in real options theory. Present values from an investment project are modeled by general diffusion process. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions under which an optimal investment time is induced by threshold strategy. We study also the conditions of optimality of threshold strategy (over all threshold strategies) and discuss the connection between solutions to investment timing problem and to free-boundary problem.

Pathwise moderate deviations for option pricing

We provide a unifying treatment of pathwise moderate deviations for models commonly used in financial applications, and for related integrated functionals. Suitable scaling allows us to transfer these results into small-time, large-time and tail asymptotics for diffusions, as well as for option prices and realised variances. In passing, we highlight some intuitive relationships between moderate deviations rate functions and their large deviations counterparts; these turn out to be useful for numerical purposes, as large deviations rate functions are often difficult to compute.

Model-free bounds for multi-asset options using option-implied information and their exact computation

We consider derivatives written on multiple underlyings in a one-period financial market, and we are interested in the computation of model-free upper and lower bounds for their arbitrage-free prices. We work in a completely realistic setting, in that we only assume the knowledge of traded prices for other single- and multi-asset derivatives, and even allow for the presence of bid-ask spread in these prices. We provide a fundamental theorem of asset pricing for this market model, as well as a superhedging duality result, that allows to transform the abstract maximization problem over probabili…

Pricing options on flow forwards by neural networks in Hilbert space

University of Oslo（奥斯陆大学）；University of California at Santa Barbara（加州大学圣巴巴拉分校）；Norwegian University of Science and Technology（挪威科技大学）

We propose a new methodology for pricing options on flow forwards by applying infinite-dimensional neural networks. We recast the pricing problem as an optimization problem in a Hilbert space of real-valued function on the positive real line, which is the state space for the term structure dynamics. This optimization problem is solved by facilitating a novel feedforward neural network architecture designed for approximating continuous functions on the state space. The proposed neural net is built upon the basis of the Hilbert space. We provide an extensive case study that shows excellent numer…

Asset Price Bubbles: An Option-based Indicator

We construct a statistical indicator for the detection of short-term asset price bubbles based on the information content of bid and ask market quotes for plain vanilla put and call options. Our construction makes use of the martingale theory of asset price bubbles and the fact that such scenarios where the price for an asset exceeds its fundamental value can in principle be detected by analysis of the asymptotic behavior of the implied volatility surface. For extrapolating this implied volatility, we choose the SABR model, mainly because of its decent fit to real option market quotes for a br…

Market completion using options

Mathematical models for financial asset prices which include, for example, stochastic volatility or jumps are incomplete in that derivative securities are generally not replicable by trading in the underlying. In earlier work (2004) the first author provided a geometric condition under which trading in the underlying and a finite number of vanilla options completes the market. We complement this result in several ways. First, we show that the geometric condition is not necessary and a weaker, necessary and sufficient, condition is presented. While this condition is generally not directly verif…
