This paper presents a general and numerically accurate lattice methodology to price risky corporate bonds. It can handle complex default boundaries, discrete payments, various asset sales assumptions, and early redemption provisions for which closed-form solutions are unavailable. Furthermore,...

The geometric average trigger reset option resets the strike price based on the geometric average of the underlying asset's prices over a monitoring window. Similar contracts have been traded on exchanges in Asia. This paper derives an analytic formula for pricing this option with multiple...

Asian options are a kind of path-dependent derivative. How to price such derivatives efficiently and accurately has been a long-standing research and practical problem. This paper proposes a novel multiresolution (MR) trinomial lattice for pricing European- and American-style arithmetic Asian...

Pricing options on a stock that pays discrete dividends has not been satisfactorily settled in the literature. Frishling (2002) shows that there are three different models to model stock price with discrete dividends, but only one of these models is close to reality and generates consistent...
