Abstract:

This paper deals with the problem of determining the correct risk measure for options in a Black–Scholes (BS) framework when time is discrete. For the purposes of hedging or testing simple asset pricing relationships previous papers used the "local", i.e., the continuous-time, BS beta as the measure of option risk even over discrete time intervals. We derive a closed-form solution for option betas over discrete return periods where we distinguish between "covariance betas" and "asset pricing betas". Both types of betas involve only simple Black–Scholes option prices and are thus easy to compute. However, the theoretical properties of these discrete betas are fundamentally different from those of local betas. We also analyze the impact of the return interval on two performance measures, the Sharpe ratio and the Treynor measure. The dependence of both measures on the return interval is economically significant, especially for OTM options.

Abstract:

Abstract Although there are many opinions critical of options, especially after the 2008 scandal, they are becoming increasingly popular in Poland again. Therefore, issues connected with options are not only the subject of interest in academic circles again but also arouse interest of economic entities, allowing enterprises to assess a variety of action strategies. Those instruments enable planning safeguards to protect against various negative future scenarios. Hence, it comes as no surprise that there has been an increase in the number and variety of enterprises that have accepted options as a way to plan for their future. The article provides a brief presentation of options. It also describes one of their pricing methods. Light of the foregoing has been hypothesized that 'valuation of options using mathematical calculators using the binomial model is an effective tool for supporting management positions in futures instruments’.

Abstract:

For its theoretical interest and strong impact on financial markets, option valuation is considered one of the cornerstones of contemporary mathematical finance. This paper specifically studies the valuation of exotic options with digital payoff and flexible payment plan. By means of the Incomplete Fourier Transform, the pricing problem is solved in order to find integral representations of the upfront price for European call and put options. Several applications in the areas of corporate finance, insurance, and real options are discussed. Finally, a new type of digital derivative named supercash option is introduced and some payment schemes are also presented.

Abstract:

This paper has proposed new option Greeks and new upper and lower bounds for European and American options. It shows that because of the put-call parity, the Greeks of put and call options are interconnected and should be shown simultaneously. In terms of the theory of the firm, it is found that both the Black-Scholes-Merton and the binomial option pricing models implicitly assume that maximizing the market value of the firm is not equivalent to maximizing the equityholders’ wealth. The binomial option pricing model implicitly assumes that further increasing (decreasing) the promised payment to debtholders affects neither the speed of decreasing (increasing) in the equity nor the speed of increasing (decreasing) in the insurance for the promised payment. The Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model implicitly assumes that further increasing (decreasing) in the promised payment to debtholders will: (1) decrease (increase) the speed of decreasing (increasing) in the equity though bounded by upper and lower bounds, and (2) increase (decrease) the speed of increasing (decreasing) in the insurance though bounded by upper and lower bounds. The paper also extends the put-call parity to include senior debt and convertible bond. It specifies the lower bound for risky debt and the conditions under which American put option will not be early exercised.

Abstract:

We suggest a modification of an American option such that the option holder can exercise the option early before the expiration and can revert later this decision to exercise; it can be repeated a number of times. This feature gives additional flexibility and risk protection for the option holder. A classification of these options and pricing rules are given. We found that the price of some call options with this feature is the same as for the European call. This means that the additional flexibility costs nothing, similarly to the situation with American and European call options. For the market model with zero interest rate, the price of put options with this feature is also the same as for the standard European put options. Therefore, these options can be more competitive than the standard American options.

Abstract:

After Geske (1979), compound options — options on options — have been employed in many fields in which real options are applied. The formula for a compound option is convenient to use in real project investment, but it has one drawback — the assets that underlie the compound options are usually non-tradable. This article addresses this issue and proposes two new compound option pricing formulae to overcome this drawback.

Abstract:

Interest rate, stock and option are all important parts of finance. This paper applies uncertain differential equation to the study of the evolution of interest rate and stock price separately. Based on actual observations, we estimate the parameters in uncertain differential equation with the method of moments. Using the introduced interest rate and stock models, we price European options and compare the results with actual observations. Finally, a paradox of the stochastic financial model is stated.

Abstract:

In the last few years new types of path-dependent options called corridor options or range options have become well-known derivative instruments in European options markets. Since the payout profiles of those options are based on occupation times of the underlying security the purpose of this paper is to provide closed form pricing formulae of Black & Scholes type for some significant representatives. Alternatively we demonstrate in this paper a relatively simple derivation of the Black & Scholes price for a single corridor option – based on a static portfolio representation – which does not make use of the distribution of occupation times (of Brownian motion). However, knowledge of occupation times' distributions is a more powerful tool.

Abstract:

MBA Professional Report
Navy leadership is searching for ways to finance urgent fleet recapitalization despite severely limited resources. This study exposes the enormity of the recapitalization challenge using budget forecasting and ratio analysis to frame potential trade-offs among major Navy appropriations that would achieve programmed procurement targets. We illustrate the organizational and operational challenges associated with even small tradeoffs and also examine the increasingly common practice of competitive sourcing using private-sector risk criteria popularized in business literature. Our research suggests that current recapitalization goals are financially untenable without significant Defense restructuring. We show with a Marine Corps rescission example that implementing the trade-offs suggested by our analysis would challenge the very way DoD does business. However, we find that the early success of Sea Enterprise in identifying business efficiencies offers the best promise for success. We caution that competitive sourcing must not be purely cost-driven but rather a strategic approach to managing risk. We offer perspectives and considerations beyond the outsourcing roadmap currently provided by OMB Circular A-76. This study is intended for Navy leaders and other stakeholders who are evaluating the factors constraining fleet re-capitalization, considering the practical ramifications of looming financing decisions, and weighing the strategic and operational risks of competitive sourcing.

Full text

Abstract:

The objective of this study is to provide evidence on the efficiency of the stock options market of the European Options Exchange. `Riskless' spreading and hedging strategies using the Black-Scholes call option pricing model with the Merton dividend adjustment, are used to test market efficiency. The results show that, although for the zero transactions costs case above-normal returns are possible, these returns become negative when the bid-ask spread cost is taken into account. These results persist over the two sample periods studied. Two variations of the trading rule that compute model prices by using the same model but with two different estimators of the standard deviation of the underlying stock's return as inputs to the model, also produce similar results. The study concludes that, with respect to the trading rules used and the sample periods studied, there were no inefficiencies on the stock options market of the European Options Exchange.

Abstract:

Depuis les articles fondateurs de black et scholes (1973) et merton (1974), l'application de la theorie des options a la finance d'entreprise a connu un essor considerable. Cependant, en depit de contributions a la comprehension des decisions d'investissement et de financement, les modeles developpes jusqu'a present ne peuvent pas expliquer de nombreuses donnees observees dans la pratique. Cette these montre que le prise en compte de certains elements caracterisant l'environnement economique ou legislatif des entreprises permet de reproduire (plus) fidelement ces donnees. Il est montre que: - la possibilite pour une entreprise en detresse financiere d'etre reorganisee permet d'expliquer les faibles niveaux d'endettement et le defaut precoce des entreprises; - le degre de liquidite des actifs d'une firme peut expliquer l'effet taille observe dans les structures du capital ainsi que les fortes primes de risque payees par les entreprises pour leur risque de defaut; - le degre d'enracinement des dirigeants et leur tendance a sur-investir ont un impact sur la politique financiere retenue; - les delais de mise en place affectent la politique optimale d'investissement et l'evaluation des projets
Since the pathbreaking papers by black and scoles (1973) and merton (1974), contingent claims analysis has been widely applied to corporate finance. However, although this literature has made a great step toward a better understanding of investment and financing decisions, it has been unable so far to capture many stylized facts of corporate finance. This thesis shows that incorporating some features of the legal and economic environment of firms allows one to explain (at least partly) the data observed in practice. It is shown that - the possibility for a firm in financial distress to engage a reorganization procedure can account for early default and the low debt levels in capital structures; - asset liquidity can explain the size effect observed in capital structures and the high credit spreads; - managerial entrenchment and empire-building have an impact on the financing policy selected by the firm; - implementation delays affect both optimal investment policies and the valuation of projects

Abstract:

This paper evaluates performance of the Black-Scholes option pricing model on European call options that are written on U.S. S&P 500 equity index in year 2014. Main purpose is to show empirical evidence about false assumptions contained in the model and complete it by relaxing unconditional restrictions. Analysis consists of investigating biasedness and heteroscedasticity properties by complementing the Black-Scholes model with GARCH(1,1) method based on maximum likelihood estimations. Varying volatility is studied also through implicit volatility surface. Depending on their characteristics, call options are categorized into specific groups according to their moneyness and maturity for further analysis. Using common econometrics and statistical methods, the paper shows that assumption about constant volatility is false, that the Black-Scholes model exhibits a bias which leads to mispricing of certain type of options and that assumption about normally distributed error term is false. Volatility is estimated through historical and implicit methods, of which the latter one uses GARCH(1,1) method to capture especially time-series characteristics of varying volatility. Findings regarding performance of the Black-Scholes option pricing model were expected and are in line with prior literature.

Abstract:

Cette thèse est composée de trois essais. Un premier essai s intéresse au lien entre frictions sur les marchés de capitaux et acquisition d information par des entrepreneurs. Je montre qu un problème d anti-sélection entre entrepreneurs et investisseurs peut modifier les incitations des premiers à investir dans l acquisition de compétences ou d expérience. Il existe deux régimes inefficients. Lorsque les investisseurs sont a priori pessimistes, l accès au financement est restreint aux entrepreneurs expérimentés, il y a peu de projets financés et ils sont en moyenne très profitables. Lorsque les investisseurs sont a priori optimistes, tous les entrepreneurs ont accès à un financement, le nombre de projets financés est élevé, et leur profitabilité moyenne est faible. Ces effets suggèrent un mécanisme d amplification des cycles économiques. Un deuxième essai modélise le financement de projets innovants comme un problème d investissement séquentiel. Un premier investissement génère un flux d information sur la profitabilité d un deuxième investissement. L entrepreneur a ex ante une information privée sur la profitabilité du projet, ce qui crée un problème d anti-sélection pour les investisseurs. Les contrats optimaux peuvent être implémentés en utilisant des stocks-options bloquées et un "golden parachute". Ils incluent également le timing du deuxième investissement qui est utilisé comme un instrument pour signaler la qualité du projet. Ce mécanisme crée une distorsion dans le processus d apprentissage : le deuxième investissement a lieu trop tôt ou trop tard par rapport à l optimum de premier ordre. Le financement interne affecte le timing du deuxième investissement. Le modèle génère des prédictions empiriques sur le relation entre la sensibilité à la performance du contrat de rémunération de l entrepreneur et la politique d investissement de la firme. Un troisième essai s intéresse aux agences de certification ou de notation dont la rémunération dépend des intérêts potentiellement conflictuels des acheteurs (investisseurs) et des vendeurs (émetteurs de titres). En délivrant une information plus précise, les agences augmentent la participation des acheteurs mais peuvent également dissuader les vendeurs de participer. En effet, ces derniers prennent également en compte la probabilité d obtenir une note positive. Dans un jeu dynamique, nous examinons comment la tentative d établir une réputation vis-a-vis des deux côtés du marché affecte la production d information. Nous montrons que le souci de réputation peut avoir un effet ambigu. Lorsque la fiabilité perçue des notations est faible, la réputation a un effet de discipline et la précision des notations s améliore. Lorsque la fiabilité perçue est élevée, les agences deviennent laxistes pour augmenter leurs revenus futurs. Cet effet ne nécessite pas que la rémunération de l agence soit contingente à la notation
The first essay shows that adverse selection on the capital market affects incentives of entrepreneurs to engage in information acquisition through education or experience. The second essay models innovation financing as a sequential investment problem. Adverse selection on the capital market distorts investment timing and creates inertia. Optimal contracts can be implemented through stock options with a vesting period and severance payments. The third essay studies ratings or certification agencies and shows that reputational concerns have an ambiguous effect. When the perceived reliability of ratings is deficient, reputation has a disciplining effect and the precision of reports improves. However, agencies with a good reputation are too lenient

Full text

Abstract:

Monte Carlo simulation is a widely used numerical method for valuing financial derivatives. It can be used to value high-dimensional options or complex path-dependent options. Part one of the thesis is concerned with the valuation of barrier options with complex time-varying barriers. In Part one, a novel simulation method, the contour bridge method, is proposed to value exotic time-varying barrier options. The new method is applied to value several exotic barrier options, including those with quadratic and trigonometric barriers. Part two of this thesis is concerned with the valuation of American options using the Monte Carlo simulation method. Since the Monte Carlo simulation can be computationally expensive, variance reduction methods must be used in order to implement Monte Carlo simulation efficiently. Chapter 5 proposes a new control variate method, based on the use of Bermudan put options, to value standard American options. It is shown that this new control variate method achieves significant gains over previous methods. Chapter 6 focuses on the extension and the generalisation of the standard regression method for valuing American options. The proposed method, the sequential contour Monte Carlo (SCMC) method, is based on hitting time simulation to a fixed set of contours. The SCMC method values American put options without bias and achieves marginal gains over the standard method. Lastly, in Part three, the SCMC method is combined with the contour bridge method to value American knock-in options with a linear barrier. The method can value American barrier options very well and efficiency gains are observed.

Options for Considering Nature-positive Finance Tracking and Taxonomy. Inter-American Development Bank, November 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0004572.

Abstract:

Healthy and resilient ecosystems underpin our societies and economies. Collapse of just a few ecosystem services such pollination, timber from forests and food from marine fisheries, could result in a global GDP decline of USD 2.7 trillion annually by 2030. We are not investing sufficiently in nature, resulting in an estimated nature funding gap as high as US$800 billion per year. Redirecting financial flows towards nature-positive investments and activities is critical. Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) play an instrumental role to support a nature-positive future, aligned with the forthcoming post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, the G7 Climate, Energy and Environment Ministers Communiqué of May 27th, 2022, and with the Joint Statement on Nature, People, and Planet endorsed by the 10 MDBs at COP27. This Statement included an intention to work towards a joint understanding of the term 'nature positive' in the context of operations and investments and a goal to develop tools and methodologies for tracking 'nature positive' investments across MDB portfolios. This technical note is a first step towards meeting this commitment. This work presents options for defining nature-positive finance, based on definitions and principles identified in a bibliographical review drawing on global expertise and developing frameworks and taxonomies. Acknowledging the variety of institutional and ecological contexts in which MDBs operate, the report offers a menu of options to screen nature-positive activities as well as a variety of approaches to determine the nature-positive contribution to investments. Finally, the report proposes principles for tracking and reporting on these investments.

Abstract:

Evidence indicates that business support to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in lower middle-income countries (LMICs) can improve firms’ performance, create jobs, and have a positive effect on labour productivity (Piza et al., 2016). The impacts of some approaches to private sector finance such as traditional loans, grants and technical assistance have been studied empirically, but there is limited evidence of the impacts of non-traditional and innovative financing instruments (Mallen & Bungey, 2019; Piza et al., 2016). Studies of financial instruments to support SMEs in LICs and LMICs tend to focus on particular markets or adaptations to traditional funding models rather than targeted outcomes such as sustainable employment creation (Mallen & Bungey, 2019). This report explores evidence on the effectiveness of financing options available to bilateral donors to promote private sector development (PSD) in LIMCs, however the evidence base for most financing instruments is extremely limited and much of the evidence is more than 5 years old. The report seeks to provide a (non-comprehensive) list of available Overseas Development Assistance (ODA) eligible options and a more detailed examination of those options for which evidence was identified for this review. An open search for evidence on PSD interventions to support SMEs in LMICs and LICs was carried out, followed by a targeted search of interventions seeking to support medium-sized enterprises (the ‘missing middle’) in Zambia specifically. The report begins with a brief overview of the ‘missing middle’ challenge in Zambia. Section 3 explores recent trends in bilateral finance for PSD. The remaining sections of the report explore available evidence on the effectiveness of specific interventions: credit guarantees, matching grants, equity investment and permanent capital vehicles, mezzanine finance, and funds of funds.

Abstract:

This edition of the Caribbean Economics Quarterly (Q2-2022) is a collaboration between the IDBs Caribbean Country Department and IDB Invest, which focuses on firms access to finance. The report begins by considering both the nature and history of the regions financial sector development, highlighting key measures of financial access and adequacy. It then leverages enterprise survey data developed by the Compete Caribbean partnership to assess legacy and emerging challenges facing firms from across the region, including those owned and/or operated by women. Newly available data from 2020 are compared with a previous vintage of the surveys from 2014, providing important insights into how circumstances have evolved, especially considering the COVID-19 shock. The analysis suggests that: (i) financial sectors and firms across the Caribbean face outsized challenges, particularly when compared to peers across the globe; (ii) the COVID-19 crisis appears to have further constrained access to finance; (iii) smaller firms appear to face more significant hurdles than larger ones; and, (iv) women-owned and/or operated firms face more severe challenges with respect to financial access than other firms across the region. Policies and reforms with the potential to improve financial development, access, and inclusion are highlighted, as well as successful examples of IDB support and collaboration in related areas across the Latin American and Caribbean region.

Abstract:

Export-led growth is the most sustainable way for Belize to raise its long-run rate of growth of GDP per head to meet the aspirations of its people and to put external debt servicing on a more secure basis. Expanding exports of goods and services to Guatemala and Mexico would be a useful step in this direction. This can be done by emphasizing tourism and non-travel services to Guatemala and Mexico which could help to increase the value of exports. Other services, such as transport, business outsourcing and finance, also have potential for expansion. Key recommendations to promote trade with Guatemala and Mexico include: increasing the capacity to estimate unrecorded exports of goods; increasing Belize¿s national capacity to produce an exportable surplus so that increased exports to these two markets do not simply displace exports to other countries; developing a strategy for promotion of non-tourism services exports; and revising and expanding the Partial Scope Agreement (PSA) with Guatemala to stimulate Belizean exports.

Full text

Abstract:

The Covid-19 crisis led multilateral and bilateral donors to revise their funding strategies to respond to the crisis and to adapt existing programming to the new context it created. This resulted in changes to overall allocations, with some countries increasing aid commitments and institutions like the World Bank scaling up lending to low- and middle-income countries while others have cut aid budgets due to low economic growth and demands on domestic resources at home. Changes in aid volumes and disbursal mechanisms are anticipated to have significant impacts on low- and middle-income countries’ abilities to cope with the crisis in the short term, and the targeting of these investments are likely to have a lingering effect on recoveries for years to come. Although aid makes up a small proportion of countries’ available finance to tackle the Covid-19 crisis, “other financing options such as foreign direct investment, workers’ remittances, and taxes – have fallen and are slow to recover” (Prizzon, 2021). Aid finance will therefore be critical to many countries’ short-term responses to Covid-19 and capacities to abate longer-term negative impacts on social and economic outcomes as countries begin to recover. This report gives a broad overview of trends in bilateral, multilateral, and private foundations’ funding strategies over the course of the pandemic to highlight observable shifts in practice. The review is based on a rapid search of funding announcements from a selection of bilateral donors, a selection of multilateral institutions, and overall trends reported by foundations. The report also includes evidence reported by secondary literature on finance for development over the course of the Covid-19 crisis.
