We consider chooser options written on various underlying assets other than vanilla call and put options. Specifically, we deal with (i) the chooser option written on the power call and put options, and (ii) the chooser option written on the exchange options. We provide explicit formulas for the prices of these chooser options whose underlying assets are either power options or exchange options, rather than the vanilla call and put options.

We study a probabilistic approach for valuing an exchange option with default risk. The structural model of Klein [6] is used for modeling default risk. Under the structural model, we derive the closed-form pricing formula of the exchange option with default risk. Specifically, we provide the pricing formula of the option with the bivariate normal cumulative function via a change of measure technique and a multidimensional Girsanov's theorem.

In this paper, we investigate the valuation of vulnerable exchange option that has credit risk of option issuer. The reduced-form model is used to model credit risk. We assume that credit event is determined by the jump of the counting process with stochastic intensity, which follows the mean reverting process. We propose a simple approach to derive the closed-form pricing formula of vulnerable exchange option under the reduced-form model and provide the pricing formula as the standard normal cumulative function.

In this paper, we deal with the pricing of vulnerable power exchange option. We consider the hybrid model as the credit risk model. The hybrid model consists of a combination of the reduced-form model and the structural model. We derive the closed-form pricing formula of vulnerable power exchange option based on the change of measure technique.

This paper examines when a consumer in existent telecommunication 2G applies to new telecommunication service 3G from the viewpoint of an option pricing theory. To improve telecommunication quality of service, the consumer applies to 3G. The application means an exchange of 2G for 3G with extra costs such as searching and conversion costs. Since the option to exchange is a right that the consumer can exercise or not, application to 3G is deemed an exercise of the option to exchange at most suitable value of the option. The timing to exercise the option depends on the extra costs and the additional communication benefit from new telecommunication quality of service. These affect an optimal timing to apply to 3G. The optimal applying or switching timing to 3G is when an economic value of the option to exchange is equal to an economic value of the extra costs plus the additional telecommunication quality from new telecommunication service. The option analysis used in this paper is applicable to various industries.

Foreign exchange options are derivative financial instruments that can exchange one currency for another at a prescribed exchange rate on a specified date. In this study, we examine the analytic formulas for vulnerable foreign exchange options based on multi-scale stochastic volatility driven by two diffusion processes: a fast mean-reverting process and a slow mean-reverting process. In particular, we take advantage of the asymptotic analysis and the technique of the Mellin transform on the partial differential equation (PDE) with respect to the option price, to derive approximated prices that are combined with a leading order price and two correction term prices. To verify the price accuracy of the approximated solutions, we utilize the Monte Carlo method. Furthermore, in the numerical experiments, we investigate the behaviors of the vulnerable foreign exchange options prices in terms of model parameters and the sensitivities of the stochastic volatility factors to the option price.

This paper is about the derivations of local volatilities for European quanto call option prices according to various types of payoffs. We derive the explicit formulas of local volatilities with constant foreign and domestic interest rates by adapting the method of Derman-Kani.

This paper studies the possibility of options as an instrument for central bank to intervene foreign exchange market. As opposed to spot transaction or forward transaction, which impacts spot exchange rate only once, currency options can continuously resist a directional speculative pressure on spot market due to the dynamic delta hedging of OTC currency options market maker. This research also analyzes whether and how central banks can use currency options to lower exchange rate volatility and maintain (implicit) target zones in foreign exchange markets. It argues that short position rather than long position in options will result in market makers dynamically hedging their long option exposure in a stabilizing manner, consistent with the first objective. Selling a "Strangle" allows a central bank to increase the credibility of its commitment to a target zone, and could have a lower expected cost than spot market interventions. However, this strategy also exposes the central bank to an unlimited loss potential. Therefore these kinds of intervention strategies must be used in the short run and temporarily.

원-달러 장외 외환 시장은 1990년말 외환위기 및 2008년 서브프라임 위기때 극심한 변동성을 보였으므로 변동성 연구에 적합한 특성을 띤다. 본고는 ARCH 모형에 기반해 옵션 가격 결정 모형을 제시한 Duan, Heston and Nandi의 GARCH 모형으로 외환 옵션 시장에서 변동성의 특성이 옵션 가격에 반영되는 정도를 분석해 보았다. 2006년 5월부터 2013년 1월까지 원-달러 장외시장에서 거래되는 옵션 자료에 대해 본고는 세 가지 모형(Black and Scholes, Duan, Heston and Nandi)간의 설명력을 비교했다. 최우추정법으로 계산된 모수를 고정하고 전일 내재 변동성을 이용하여 당일의 이론 가격을 구해 오차를 계산하면 Duan 및 Black and Scholes 모형 모두 약 0.1% 수준을 보인다. 다만 Heston and Nandi는 상기 두 모형에 비해 큰 오차값을 가지며 또한 만기가 길어지면 설명력이 약해진다. 따라서 원-달러 외환 옵션시장의 경우 Duan 또는 Black and Scholes 모형을 이용하여 가치를 측정하는 것이 유용할 것으로 사료된다. 또한 정책적 시사점으로는 외환 현물 시장의 과거 변동성 평균이 14% 전후에서 형성되었으므로 내재 변동성 5%전후에서 외환 옵션 등을 매매하는 것은 매도자에게 대규모 손실을 초래할 수 있다.
