Reverse Convertibles have become very popular in the German market. They are a common banking product for the private customer as well as for the institutional investor. Like ordinary convertibles it is a hybrid product. Its price depends on the development of one or several stock or indices as...

The Finite Element Method is a well-studied and well-understood method of solving partial differential equations. It's applicability to financial models formulated as PDEs is demonstrated. It's advantage concerning the computation of accurate `Greeks' is delineated. This is demonstrated with...

Except for special cases, passport option s do not have closed-form solutions. Here we show how to derive approximate solutions using finite element methods. We also show that finite elements offer advantages in computing the hedge parameters.
