In other words, for an attainable contingent claim, find a self-financing strategy η, ξ) such that C = η t B t + ξ t S t 121 Hedging strategy for simple contingent claim form Consider the generalized Black-Scholes model and a simple contingent claim C of the C =ΦS T ) Assumption : The price process πt, Φ) is given by π t = πt, Φ) = F t, S t ) 283

4 HEDGING 122 Delta and gamma hedging Consider a financial market Definition 122 A portfolio which is insensitive with respect to small changes in one of the greeks is said to be neutral In particular, 1) a portfolio with zero delta is said to be delta neutral 2) a portfolio with zero gamma is said to be gamma neutral ddddddddd portfolio dddddd, dddd portfolio dddddddd, d ddd the valve of the portfolio Consider a contingent claim with pricing function F t, S t ) Goal : Immunizing this portfolio against small changes in the underlying asset price S t Ft, x) If the portfolio is delta neutral, ie, Δ F = =, done! x If not, sell the entire portfolio But not feasible, preferable! An interesting idea : add a derivative eg, an option or the underlying asset itself) to the portfolio Denote the pricing function of the chosen derivative by P t, S t ) and consider a portfolio 1,ξ), ie, own one unit of the first asset and ξ unit of the additional derivative Then the value of the portfolio is given by V t, S t )=F t, S t )+ξpt, S t ) In order to make this portfolio delta neutral, we have to find ξ such that V x =
5 122 DELTA AND GAMMA HEDGING 287 This implies that F x + ξ P x =, ie, ΔF + ξδp = Thus, ξ is given by ξ = ΔF ΔP Remark 123 If the additional derivative is the undrlying asset, then the stock price at time t is P t, x) =πt, Φ s )=x, and ΔP =1 This implies that ξ = ΔF, and the delta of a derivative give us the number of units of the underlying stock that is needed in order to hedge the derivative dddddd: ddd stratgey, dddddddddd dddddd, ddddd ddddd, ddddddddddddd, dddd discrete rebalanced delta hedge ddddddd rebalance? If we rebalance often, it is a very good hedge, but suffer from high transaction costs dddd, dddddddddddddd ddddddddd? ddddddddddddddddddddd If the gamma Γ = Δ x = 2 F x 2 is high, we have to rebalance often Hence, a low gamma will allow us to keep the delta hedge for a long period dddd delta neutral dd, ddd dd gamma neutral d gamma neutral dddddd delta neutral dddddd Fixed two derivatives with pricing functions P t, S t ) and Qt, S t ) Consider a portfolio 1,η t,ξ t ) Then the value of the portfolio is given by V t, S t )=F t, S t )+η t P t, S t )+ξ t Qt, S t )
6 HEDGING Due to delta neutral, and gamma neutral, V =, ie, x 2 V =, ie, x2 Δ F + η t Δ P + ξ t Δ Q = Γ F + η t Γ P + ξ t Γ Q =, we can solve the system of linear equations to get η t and ξ t Hence Δ F Δ Q Γ F Γ Q η t = = Δ QΓ F Δ F Γ Q, Δ P Δ Q Δ P Γ Q Δ Q Γ P Γ P Γ Q Δ P Δ F Γ P Γ F ξ t = = Δ F Γ P Δ P Γ F Δ P Δ Q Δ P Γ Q Δ Q Γ P Consider a special case Γ P Γ Q Lemma 124 For the underlying stock, Δ S =1, Γ S = Thus, we have the following result Remark 125 If P t, S t )=S t, then η t = Δ QΓ F Δ F Γ Q Γ Q = Δ Q Γ Q Γ F Δ F, ξ t = Γ F Γ Q
