The price of a European option can be computed as the expected value of the payoff function under the risk-neutral measure. For American options and path-dependent options in general, this principle can not be applied. In this paper, we derive a model-free analytical formula for the implied...

In this study, we derived analytic expressions for the elliptical truncated moment generating function (MGF), the zeroth, first, and second-order moments of quadratic forms of the multivariate normal, Student's t, and generalised hyperbolic distributions. The resulting formulae were tested in a...

We illustrate the role of left tail dependence measures, left exceedance correlation (LEC) and left tail mean (LTM), in equity risk premium (ERP) predictability. LEC and LTM measure the average of pairwise left tail dependency among major equity sectors incorporating shocks that are...

An algorithm to generate samples with approximate first-, second-, and third-order moments is presented extending the Cholesky matrix decomposition to a Cholesky tensor decomposition of an arbitrary order. The tensor decomposition of the first-, second-, and third-order objective moments...

We derived a model-free analytical approximation of the price of a multi-asset option defined over an arbitrary multivariate process, applying a semi-parametric expansion of the unknown risk-neutral density with the moments. The analytical expansion termed as the Multivariate Generalised...
