Paperback. Focuses on the development of approaches for the market-conform valuation of various derivatives. This book presents a flexible approach to construct the binomial process of the underlying asset price by using a simultaneously backward and forward induction algorithm.

Num Pages: 114 pages, 10 black & white illustrations, 12 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: KC; PB. Category: (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 6. Weight in Grams: 400.
1. 1 The Area of Research In this thesis, we will investigate the 'market-conform' pricing of newly issued contingent claims. A contingent claim is a derivative whose value at any settlement date is determined by the value of one or more other underlying assets, e. g. , forwards, futures, plain-vanilla or exotic options with European or American-style exercise features. Market-conform pricing means that prices of existing actively traded securities are taken as given, and then the set of equivalent martingale measures that are consistent with the initial prices of the traded securities is derived using no-arbitrage arguments.
