1. Construction and Evaluation of Basket Options using the Binomial Option Pricing Model
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : Hedge funds use a variety of different financial instruments in order to try to achieve over-average returns without taking on excessive risk - options being one of the most common of these instruments. Basket options is a type of option that is written on several underlying assets that can be used to hedge risky positions. LÄS MER
2. Estimation methods for Asian Quanto Basket options
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistikSammanfattning : All financial institutions that provide options to counterparties will in most cases get involved withMonte Carlo simulations. Options with a payoff function that depends on asset’s value at differenttime points over its lifespan are so called path dependent options. LÄS MER
3. Modeling implied correlation matrices using option prices
Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : In the process of calculating a fair value it is preferable to price the asset from observable market data. Some assets are valued using variables which can not be directly observed in the market but are instead implied from observable market data. One such variable is the correlation between assets.

4. Combinatorial and price efficient optimization of the underlying assets in basket options
Master-uppsats, KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteoriSammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to develop an optimization model that chooses the optimal and price efficient combination of underlying assets for a equally weighted basket option. To obtain a price efficient combination of underlying assets a function that calculates the basket option price is needed, for further use in an optimization model. LÄS MER
