This paper extends the traditional jump-diffusion model to a comprehensive general Lévy process model with the stochastic interest rate for European-style options pricing. By using the Girsanov theorem and Itô formula, we derive the uniform formalized pricing formulas under the equivalent martingale measure. This model contains not only the traditional jump-diffusion model, such as the compound Poisson model, the renewal model, the pure-birth jump-diffusion model, but also the infinite activities Lévy model.

Under the assumption of the stock price, interest rate, and default intensity obeying the stochastic differential equation driven by fractional Brownian motion, the jump-diffusion model is established for the financial market in fractional Brownian motion setting. With the changes of measures, the traditional pricing method is simplified and the general pricing formula is obtained for the European vulnerable option with stochastic interest rate. At the same time, the explicit expression for it comes into being.

We propose a model for valuing participating life insurance products under a generalized jump-diffusion model with a Markov-switching compensator. It also nests a number of important and popular models in finance, including the classes of jump-diffusion models and Markovian regime-switching models. The Esscher transform is employed to determine an equivalent martingale measure. Simulation experiments are conducted to illustrate the practical implementation of the model and to highlight some features that can be obtained from our model.

A fundamental challenge for insurance companies (insurers) is to strike the best balance between optimal investment and risk management of paying insurance liabilities, especially in a low interest rate environment. The stochastic interest rate becomes a critical factor in this asset-liability management (ALM) problem. This paper derives the closed-form solution to the optimal investment problem for an insurer subject to the insurance liability of compound Poisson process and the stochastic interest rate following the extended CIR model. Therefore, the insurer’s wealth follows a jump-diffusion model with stochastic interest rate when she invests in stocks and bonds. Our problem involves maximizing the expected constant relative risk averse (CRRA) utility function subject to stochastic interest rate and Poisson shocks. After solving the stochastic optimal control problem with the HJB framework, we offer a verification theorem by proving the uniform integrability of a tight upper bound for the objective function.

Abstract In this paper, we derive a new jump-diffusion model for electricity spot price from the “Price-Cap” principle. Next, we show that the model has a non-classical mean-reverting linear drift. Moreover, using this model, we compute a new exact formula for the price of forward contract under an equivalent martingale measure and we compare it to Cartea et al. (Appl Math Finance 12(4):313–335, 2005) formula.
