In this paper we analyse which diversification strategy is optimal for classical rational investors with constant relative risk aversion. We employ the Black–Scholes model and the stochastic volatility model of Heston for generating the processes of underlying stocks as well as pricing the derivatives. The results are developed first for options and then extended to some important classes of structured financial products: capital protected notes, discount certificates and bonus certificates. We find that investors’ choices on the two diversification strategies differ noticeably, but in general for convex payoffs index options are preferable, whereas for concave payoffs a portfolio of single stock options has usually higher utility.</p>","PeriodicalId":45022,"journal":{"name":"Review of Derivatives Research","volume":"40 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138513647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study analyses the unique design of the SSB and provides a valuation of the Bermudan option for early redemption that is embedded in the SSB. The Black–Derman–Toy model is used to build the interest rate tree, and an iterative method is employed to avoid arbitrary specification of the pre-determined short rate volatility function. This bespoke Bermudan option can have changing strike prices over time. It also has a novel characteristic whereby the value of exercise to a buyer need not equal to the cost of being exercised to a seller. Better understanding of embedded options within government savings bonds leads to innovative designs that may encourage effective citizens’ savings.</p>","PeriodicalId":45022,"journal":{"name":"Review of Derivatives Research","volume":"20 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138513656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The distinctive features of the model are threefold. First, both the underlying and the option issuer’s assets follow the Heston–Nandi GARCH model with their conditional variance being readily estimated and implemented solely on the basis of the observable prices in the market. Second, the model incorporates both idiosyncratic and systematic risks into the asset dynamics of the underlying and the option issuer, as well as the intensity process. Finally, the explicit pricing formula of vulnerable options enables us to undertake the comparative statistics analysis.</p>","PeriodicalId":45022,"journal":{"name":"Review of Derivatives Research","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138513650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
