This study deals with a single risky asset pricing model whose volatility is described by Wishart affine processes. This multifactor model with two dependency matrices describing the correlation between the asset dynamic and Wishart processes makes it more flexible enough to fit the market data for short or long maturities. The aim of the study is to derive and solve the call option pricing problem under the double Wishart stochastic volatility model. The Fourier transform techniques combined with perturbation methods are employed in order to price the European call options. The numerical illustrations on pricing predictions show similar behavior of price movements under the double Wishart model with respect to the market price.

This paper studies collar options in a stochastic volatility economy. The underlying asset price is assumed to follow a continuous geometric Brownian motion with stochastic volatility driven by a mean-reverting process. The method of asymptotic analysis is employed to solve the PDE in the stochastic volatility model. An analytical approximation formula for the price of the collar option is derived. A numerical experiment is presented to demonstrate the results.

Pricing a volatility swap is a highly nonlinear problem. Explicit solutions of the prices of volatility swaps are notoriously difficult to find. In this paper, we consider a saddlepoint approximation method for the valuation of a volatility swap under the Heston’s stochastic volatility model with regime switching. All the values of key parameters in our model are supposed to depend on the states of a continuous time observable Markov chain process. We present a closed-form exact cumulant generating functions (CGFs) of the continuous realized variance. Additionally, an approximated CGF is given. Then we approximate the volatility swaps by the saddlepoint approximation formula which derived from the Fourier inversion representation. The numerical results suggest that the alternative saddlepoint approximation method (ASAP) and the approximated ASAP method could both produce fairly accurate results for the given range of maturities.

We investigate the European call option pricing problem under the fractional stochastic volatility model. The stochastic volatility model is driven by both fractional Brownian motion and standard Brownian motion. We obtain an analytical solution of the European option price via the Itô’s formula for fractional Brownian motion, Malliavin calculus, derivative replication and the fundamental solution method. Some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the impact of parameters on option prices, and the results of comparison with other models are presented. doi:10.1017/S1446181121000225
