1. LEAST -SQUARE MONTE CARLO BASED OPTION PRICING OF EUROPEAN AND BERMUDAN STOCK INDEX OPTIONS
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikAbstract : On the financial markets, there are a large number of financial instruments. Two of these instruments is the European and Bermudan option, where the Bermudan option can be seen as a discrete version of the American option. Meaning, if one can price the Bermudan option one can also estimate the price of an American option. READ MORE

2. Option Pricing using Artificial Neural Networks
University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisationAbstract : Neural networks have an increasingly important role in the financial market, by offering a solution to stationarity and non-linearity whilst also providing robustness and predictive power. Options and option pricing are a fundamental area of interest in the daily activities of investment banks, hedge funds and trading firms in the financial market. READ MORE

3. American option prices and optimal exercise boundaries under Heston Model–A Least-Square Monte Carlo approach
University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationAbstract : Pricing American options has always been problematic due to its early exercise characteristic. As no closed-form analytical solution for any of the widely used models exists, many numerical approximation methods have been proposed and studied. READ MORE

4. Regression-Based Monte Carlo For Pricing High-Dimensional American-Style Options
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysikAbstract : Pricing different financial derivatives is an essential part of the financial industry. For some derivatives there exists a closed form solution, however the pricing of high-dimensional American-style derivatives is still today a challenging problem. READ MORE

5. Pricing a Multi-Asset American Option in a Parallel Environment by a Finite Element Method Approach
University essay from Matematiska institutionenAbstract : There is the need for applying numerical methods to problems that cannot be solved analytically and as the spatial dimension of the problem is increased the need for computational recourses increase exponentially, a phenomenon known as the “curse of dimensionality”. In the Black-Scholes-Merton framework the American option pricing problem has no closed form solution and a numerical procedure has to be employed for solving a PDE. READ MORE
