Book Description
This volume offers the reader practical methods to compute the option prices in the incomplete asset markets. The [GLP & MEMM] pricing models are clearly introduced, and the properties of these models are discussed in great detail. It is shown that the geometric L(r)vy process (GLP) is a typical example of the incomplete market, and that the MEMM (minimal entropy martingale measure) is an extremely powerful pricing measure. This volume also presents the calibration procedure of the [GLP \& MEMM] model that has been widely used in the application of practical problem

Closed-Form Solutions for Options in Incomplete Markets

Book Description
This paper reconsiders the predictions of the standard option pricing models in the context of incomplete markets. We relax the completeness assumption of the Black-Scholes (1973) model and as an immediate consequence we can no longer construct a replicating portfolio to price the option. Instead, we use the good-deal bounds technique to arrive at closed-form solutions for the option price. We determine an upper and a lower bound for this price and find that, contrary to Black-Scholes (1973) options theory, increasing the volatility of the underlying asset does not necessarily increase the option value. In fact, the lower bound prices are always a decreasing function of the volatility of the underlying asset, which cannot be explained by a Black-Scholes (1973) type of argument. In contrast, this is consistent with the presence of unhedgeable risk in the incomplete market. Furthermore, in an incomplete market where the underlying asset of an option is either infrequently traded or non-traded, early exercise of an American call option becomes possible at the lower bound, because the economic agent wants to lock in value before it disappears as a result of increased unhedgeable risk.

On the Pricing of Options in Incomplete Markets

Book Description
In this paper we reconsider the pricing of options in incomplete continuous time markets. We first discuss option pricing with idiosyncratic stochastic volatility. This leads, of course, to an averaged Black-Scholes price formula. Our proof of this result uses a new formalization of idiosyncrasy which encapsulates other definitions in the literature. Our method of proof is subsequently generalized to other forms of incompleteness and systematic (i.e. non-idiosyncratic) information. Generally this leads to an option pricing formula which can be expressed as the average of a complete markets formula.
