The authors develop a new Monte Carlo-based method for pricing path-dependent options under the variance gamma (VG) model. The gamma bridge sampling method proposed by Avramidis et al. (Avramidis, A. N., P. L'Ecuyer, P. A. Tremblay. 2003. Efficient simulation of gamma and variance-gamma...

Non-Gaussian processes of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type, or OU processes for short, offer the possibility of capturing important distributional deviations from Gaussianity and for flexible modelling of dependence structures. This paper develops this potential, drawing on and extending powerful results...

A new alternative diffusion model for asset price movements is presented. In contrast to the popular approach of Brownian motion it proposes deterministic diffusion for the modelling of stock price movements. These diffusion processes are a new area of physical research and can be created by the...

Motivated by empirical evidence of long range dependence in macroeconomic variables like interest rates we propose a fractional Brownian motion driven model to describe the dynamics of the short and the default rate in a bond market. Aiming at results analogous to those for affine models we...
