We discuss aspects of numerical methods for the computation of Gerber-Shiu or discounted penalty-functions in renewal risk models. We take an analytical point of view and link this function to a partial-integro-differential equation and propose a numerical method for its solution. We show weak...

We investigate the pricing of swing options in a model where the logarithm of the spot price is the sum of a deterministic seasonal trend and an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process driven by a jump diffusion. First we calibrate the model to Nord Pool electricity market data. Second, the existence of an...
