A closed-form approximation for pricing geometric Istanbul options
The Istanbul options were first introduced by Michel Jacques in 1997. These derivatives are considered as an extension of the Asian options. In this paper, we propose an analytical approximation formula for a geometric Istanbul call option (GIC) under the Black-Scholes model. Our approximate pricing formula is obtained in closed-form using a second-order Taylor expansion. We compare our theoretical results with those of Monte-Carlo simulations using the control variates method. Finally, we study the effects of changes in the price of the underlying asset on the value of GIC.

Closed-form approximations in derivatives pricing: The Kristensen-Mele approach
Kristensen and Mele (2011) developed a new approach to obtain closed-form approximations to continuous-time derivatives pricing models. The approach uses a power series expansion of the pricing bias between an intractabl…
FormPricing Exchange Options under Stochastic Correlation
In this paper we study the pricing of exchange options when underlying assets have stochastic volatility and stochastic correlation. An approximation using a closed-form approximation based on a Taylor expansion of the c…
Analysis of VIX-linked fee incentives in variable annuities via continuous-time Markov chain approximation
We consider the pricing of variable annuities (VAs) with general fee structures under popular stochastic volatility models such as Heston, Hull-White, Scott, $\alpha$-Hypergeometric, $3/2$, and $4/2$ models. In particula…
Closed-form approximations with respect to the mixing solution for option pricing under stochastic volatility
We consider closed-form approximations for European put option prices within the Heston and GARCH diffusion stochastic volatility models with time-dependent parameters. Our methodology involves writing the put option pri…
FormPricing of the Geometric Asian Options Under a Multifactor Stochastic Volatility Model
This paper focuses on the pricing of continuous geometric Asian options (GAOs) under a multifactor stochastic volatility model. The model considers fast and slow mean reverting factors of volatility, where slow volatilit…
