6 Equity Market Model {S t } t price process interest rate (discount factor β t 1) No dividend Classical Approach Specify dynamics for S t, e.g. GBM in Black Scholes case ds t = S t σ t dw t Compute prices of derivatives by expectation, e.g. C (T, K ) = E{(S T K ) + }
7 Actively/Liquidly Traded Instrument Main Assumptions At each time t we observe C t (T, K ) the market price at time t of European call options of strike K and maturity T > t. Market prices by expectation C t (T, K ) = E{(S T K ) + F t } for some measure (not necessarily unique) P Empirical Fact Many observed option price movements cannot be attributed to changes in S t Fundamental market data: Surface {C t (T, K )} T,K instead of S t
8 Remarks No arbitrage implies C (T, K ) increasing in T C (T, K ) non-increasing and convex in K lim K C (T, K ) = lim K C (T, K ) = S Realistic Set-Up We actually observe C (T i, K ij ) i = 1,, m, j = 1,, n i Davis-Hobson & references therein.
9 More Remarks Switch to notation τ = T t for time to maturity (Musiela) Call surface { C t (τ, K )} of prices C t (T, K ) parameterized by τ and K. C t (τ, K ) = E{(S t+τ K ) + F t } = E Pt {(S t+τ K ) + }. C t (τ, K ) = (x K ) + dµ t,t+τ (dx) Crucial Fact (Breeden-Litzenberger) For each τ >, the knowledge of all the prices C t (τ, K ) completely determines the marginal distribution µ t,t+τ of S t+τ w.r.t. P t.
10 Black-Scholes Formula Dynamics of the underlying asset Wiener process {W t} t, σ >. ds t = S tσdw t, S = s Price of a call option C t(τ, K ) = S tφ(d 1 ) K Φ(d 2 ) with d 1 = log Mt + τσ2 /2 σ, d 1 = log Mt τσ2 /2 τ σ τ M t = K /S t moneyness of the option Φ error function Φ(x) = 1 2π x e y2 /2 dy, x R.
11 Implied Volatility Classical Black-Scholes framework On any given day t fix maturity T (or time to maturity τ) strike K price is an increasing function of the parameter σ σ C (BS) t (τ, K ) one-to-one In general case, given an option price C quoted on the market, its implied volatiltiy is the unique number σ = Σ t (τ, K ) for which C t (τ, K ) = C. Used by ALL market participants as a currency for options the wrong number to put in the wrong formula to get the right price. (Black)
12 Implied Volatility Code-Book { C t (τ, K ); τ >, K > } {Σ t (τ, K ); τ >, K > } Static (t = ) No arbitrage conditions difficult to formulate (B. Dupire, Derman-Kani, P.Carr,...) Dynammic No arbitrage conditions difficult to check in a dynamic framework (Derman-Kani for tree models)
13 Search for another Option Code-Book ds t = S t σ t dw t, S = s If t > is fixed, for any τ 1 and τ 2 such that < τ 1 < τ 2, then for any convex function φ on [, ) we have (Jensen) Or φ(x)µ t,t+τ1 (dx) µ t,t+τ1 µ t,t+τ2 φ(x)µ t,t+τ2 (dx) {µ t,t+τ } τ> non-decreasing in the balayage order (Kellerer) Existence of a Markov martingale {Y τ } τ with marginal distributions {µ t,t+τ } τ>. NB{Y τ } τ contains more information than the mere marginal distributions {µ t,t+τ } τ>
14 Local Volatility Code-Book On Wiener space (in Brownian filtration) Martingale Property implies Markov Property implies Y τ = Y + τ Y s a(s) db s a(s, ω) = a t (s, Y s (ω)) At each time t, I choose surface {a t (τ, K )} τ>,k > as an alternative code-book for { C(τ, K )} τ>,k >. {a t (τ, K )} τ>,k > was introduced in a static framework (i.e. for t = ) simultaneously by Dupire and Derman and Kani called local volatility surface
15 PDE Code, I Assume with initial condition and µ t,t+τ has density g t (τ, x). dy τ = Y τ a t (τ, Y τ )d B τ, τ > Y = S t Breeden-Litzenberger argument (specific to the hockey-stick pay-off function) C t (τ, K ) = (x K ) + g t (τ, x)dx Differentiate both sides twice with respect to K 2 K 2 C t (τ, K ) = g t (τ, K ). (1)
16 PDE Code, II Tanaka s formula: (Y τ K ) + = (Y K ) + + τ 1 [K, ) (Y s )dy s τ δ K (Y s ) d[y, Y ] s and taking E t - expectations on both sides using the fact that Y is a martingale satisfying d[y, Y ] s = Y 2 s a t (s, Y s ) 2 ds, we get: C t (τ, K ) = (S t K ) = (S t K ) τ τ Take derivatives with respect to τ on both sides C(τ, K ) τ E t {δ K (Ys)Y 2 s a t (s, Y s ) 2 } ds K 2 a t (s, K ) 2 g t (s, K ) ds. = 1 2 K 2 a t (τ, K ) 2 g t (τ, K ).
17 PDE Code, III Equate both expressions of g t (τ, K ) a t (τ, K ) 2 = 2 τ C(τ, K ) K 2 2 KK C(τ, K ) Smooth Call Prices Local Volatilities
18 PDE Code IV From local volatility surface {a t (τ, K )} τ,k to call option prices { C t (τ, K )} τ,k solve PDE (Dupire s PDE) τ C(τ, K ) = 1 2 K 2 a 2 (τ, K ) 2 KK C(τ, K ), τ >, K > C(, K ) = (S t K ) + { C t (τ, K ); τ >, K > } {a t (τ, K ); τ >, K > } Why would this approach be better? NEED ONLY POSITIVITY for no arbitrage
19 Dupire Formula If ds t = S t σ t dw t for some Wiener process {W t } t and some adapted non-negaitve process {σ t } t, then a t (τ, K ) 2 = E t {σ 2 t+τ S t+τ = K }.
20 HJM Prescription Proposed by Derman-Kani in 1998, but NEVER developed! Compute a (τ, K ) from market call prices (Initial condition) Define a dynamic model by defining the dynamics of the local volatility surface da t (τ, K ) = α t (τ, K )dt + β t (τ, K )dw t
21 Consistency Question Under what conditions do the Call Prices computed from the dynamics of a t (τ, K ) come from a model of the form of the form ds t = S t σ t db 1 t with initial condition S = s the underlying instrument? Answer σ t = a t (, S t )
22 No-Arbitrage Condition Question Under what conditions on the dynamics of a t (τ, K ) are the call prices (local) martingales? Answer (α + β 2 2 ) 2 K 2 C + t a, 2 K 2 C t = T a 2 K 2 C Recall classical HJM drift condition T α(t, T ) = β(t, T ) β(t, s)ds = t d j=1 T β (j) (t, T ) β (j) (t, s)ds. t
23 Main Result Statement The dynamic model of the local volatility surface given by the system of equations dã t(τ, K ) = α t(τ, K )dt + β t(τ, K )dw t, t, (2) is consistent with a spot price model of the form ds t = S tσ tdb t for some Wiener process {B t} t, and does not allow for arbitrage if and only if a.s. for all t > : ã t(, S t) = σ t τ ã t(τ, K ) KK 2 C t(τ, K ) = (ã t(τ, K ) α t(τ, K ) + βt(τ, K ) 2 2 t quadratic covariation of two semi-martingales. (3) (4) ) KK 2 C t(τ, K ) + d dt ã (τ, K )2, KK 2 C (τ, K ) t
24 Practical Monte Carlo Implementation Start from a model for β t (τ, K ) (say a stochastic differential equation); Get S and C (τ, K ) from the market and compute 2 KK C, a and β from its model; Loop: for t =, t, 2 t, 1 Get α t(τ, K ) from the drift condition; 2 Use Euler to get a t+ t (τ, K ) from the dynamics of the local volatility; S t+ t from S t Dynamics; β t+ t from its own model;
25 Markovian Spot Models (β ) α t(τ, K ) = d ãt(τ, K ). dt Drift condition reads Hence τ ã t(τ, K ) = α t(τ, K ) τ ã t(τ, K ) = d dt ãt(τ, K ) which shows that for fixed K, ã t(τ, K ) is the solution of a transport equation whose solution is given by: ã t(τ, K ) = ã (τ + t, K ) and the consistency condition forces the special form of the spot volatility. Hence we proved: σ t = a (t, S t) The local volatility is a process of bounded variation for each τ and K fixed if and only if it is the deterministic shift of a constant shape and the underlying spot is a Markov process.
