Credit risk measurement and management are important and current issues in the modern finance world from both the theoretical and practical perspectives. There are two major schools of thought for credit risk analysis, namely the structural models based on the asset value model originally...

This article investigates the valuation of currency options when the dynamic of the spot Foreign Exchange (FX) rate is governed by a two-factor Markov-modulated stochastic volatility model, with the first stochastic volatility component driven by a lognormal diffusion process and the second...

In this paper, we develop an option valuation model when the price dynamics of the underlying risky asset is governed by the exponential of a pure jump process specified by a shifted kernel-biased completely random measure. The class of kernel-biased completely random measures is a rich class of...

In this paper, we consider a game theoretic approach to option valuation under Markovian regime-switching models, namely, a Markovian regime-switching geometric Brownian motion (GBM) and a Markovian regime-switching jump-diffusion model. In particular, we consider a stochastic differential game...

We consider the bond valuation problem when the short rate process is described by a Markovian regime-switching Hull-White model or a Markovian regime-switching Cox-Ingersoll-Ross model. In each of the two short rate models, we establish a Markov-modulated exponential-affine bond price formula...

This paper proposes a partial differential equation (PDE) approach to calculate coherent risk measures for portfolios of derivatives under the Black-Scholes economy. It enables us to define the risk measures in a dynamic way and to deal with American options in a relatively effective way. Our...

In this paper we develop a method for pricing derivatives under a Markov switching version of the Heston-Nandi GARCH (1, 1) model by using a well known tool from actuarial science, namely the Esscher transform. We suppose that the dynamics of the GARCH process switch over time according to one...

We introduce a novel approach to optimal investment-reinsurance problems of an insurance company facing model uncertainty via a game theoretic approach. The insurance company invests in a capital market index whose dynamics follow a geometric Brownian motion. The risk process of the company is...
