    Keywords : Applied Mathematics; Financial Mathematics; Option Pricing; Binomial Option Pricing Model; Basket Option; Delta Neutrality; Data Analysis; Tillämpad Matematik; Finansiell Matematik; Optionsprissättning; Binomialmodellen; Korgoption; Deltaneutralitet; Dataanalys;

    Abstract : Hedge funds use a variety of different financial instruments in order to try to achieve over-average returns without taking on excessive risk - options being one of the most common of these instruments. Basket options is a type of option that is written on several underlying assets that can be used to hedge risky positions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Accuracy of Risk Measures For Black Swan Events

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Viktor Barry; [2021]
    Keywords : Black swans; value at risk; conditional value at risk; monte carlo simulation; financial mathematics; risk analysis; financial risk; Black Swan; value at risk; conditional value at risk; monte carlo-simulering; finansiell matematik; riskanalys; finansiell risk;

    Abstract : This project aims to analyze the risk measures Value-at-Risk and Conditional-Value-at-Risk for three stock portfolios with the purpose of evaluating each method's accuracy in modelling Black Swan events. This is achieved by utilizing a parametric approach in the form of a modified (C)VaR with a Cornish-Fisher expansion, a historic approach with a time series spanning ten years and a Markov Monte Carlo simulation modeled with a Brownian motion.

    Abstract : In response to financial crises and opaque practices, governmental entities and financial regulatory bodies have implemented several pieces of legislature and directives meant to protect investors and increase transparency. Such regulations often impose strict liquidity requirements and robust estimations of the risk borne by a financial firm at any given time. READ MORE

  5. 4. An Empirical Study of Modern Portfolio Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Erik Lagerström; Michael Magne Schrab; [2020]

    Abstract : Mean variance optimization has shortcomings making the strategy far from optimal from an investor’s perspective. The purpose of the study is to conduct an empirical investigation as to how modern methods of portfolio optimization address the shortcomings associated with mean variance optimization. READ MORE

  6. 5. Copula selection and parameter estimation in market risk models

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Carl Ljung; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis, literature is reviewed for theory regarding elliptical copulas (Gaussian, Student’s t, and Grouped t) and methods for calibrating parametric copulas to sets of observations. Theory regarding model diagnostics is also summarized in the thesis. READ MORE
