We study the classical real option problem in which an agent faces the decision if and when to invest optimally into a project. The investment is assumed to be irreversible. This problem has been studied by Myers and Majd (Adv Futures Options Res 4:1–21, 1990) for the case of a complete...

We use Malliavin calculus and the Clark–Ocone formula to derive the hedging strategy of an arithmetic Asian Call option in general terms. Furthermore we derive an expression for the density of the integral over time of a geometric Brownian motion, which allows us to express hedging strategy...

We discuss how implied volatilities for OTC traded Asian options can be computed by combining Monte Carlo techniques with the Newton method in order to solve nonlinear equations. The method relies on accurate and fast computation of the corresponding vegas of the option. In order to achieve this...

We consider a risk-averse entrepreneur who invests in a project with idiosyncratic risk. In contrast to the literature, we assume the entrepreneur is unable to get a loan from a bank directly because of the low creditability of the entrepreneur and so an innovative financial contract, named...

The paper considers the option of an investor to invest in a project that generates perpetual cash flows, of which the drift parameter is unobservable. The investor invests in a liquid financial market to partially hedge cash flow risk and estimation risk. We derive two 3-dimensional non-linear...
