Closed-End Formula for options linked to Target Volatility Strategies
Recent years have seen an emerging class of structured financial products based on options linked to dynamic asset allocation strategies. One of the most chosen approach is the so-called target volatility mechanism. It shifts between risky and riskless assets to control the volatility of the overall portfolio. Even if a series of articles have been already devoted to the analysis of options linked to the target volatility mechanism, this paper is the first, to the best of our knowledge, that tries to develop closed-end formulas for VolTarget options. In particular, we develop closed-end formulas for option prices and some key hedging parameters within a Black and Scholes setting, assuming the underlying follows a target volatility mechanism.

Hull and White and Alòs type formulas for barrier options in stochastic volatility models with nonzero correlation
Two novel closed-form formulas for the price of barrier options in stochastic volatility models with zero interest rate and dividend yield but nonzero correlation between the asset and its instantaneous volatility are de…
FormExpansion method for pricing foreign exchange options under stochastic volatility and interest rates
Some expansion methods have been proposed for approximately pricing options which has no exact closed formula. Benhamou et al. (2010) presents the smart expansion method that directly expands the expectation value of pay…
Pricing Path-dependent Options under Stochastic Volatility via Mellin Transform
In this paper, we derive closed-form formulas of first-order approximation for down-and-out barrier and floating strike lookback put option prices under a stochastic volatility model, by using an asymptotic approach. To …
FormSensitivityAsset Pricing with Random Volatility
This paper proposes to model asset price dynamics with a mixture of diffusion processes where the instantaneous volatility of the underlying diffusion process contains a random vector. The marginal probability distributi…
Pricing timer options and variance derivatives with closed-form partial transform under the 3/2 model
Most of the empirical studies on stochastic volatility dynamics favor the 3/2 specification over the square-root (CIR) process in the Heston model. In the context of option pricing, the 3/2 stochastic volatility model is…
