Riassunto

This book provides the first systematic classification and treatment to essentially all exotic options currently trading at the Over-the-Counter (OTC) market. It contains exact closed-form pricing formulae and approximated closed-form pricing formulae for all popular exotic options. It includes arguments for and pricing formulae of exotic options with more flexibility than most popular exotic options such as flexible Asian options with flexible weights to various observations in the average, Asian barrier options, correlation digital options, etc. Most of the analyses in this book are within the Black-Scholes environment so that comparisons of each type of exotic options with the Black-Scholes model can be made readily. Emphases have been paid to illustrate the ideas of products clearly and show how to use the pricing expressions conveniently. The book contains many pricing formulae and analyses which do not exist in the literature.The book is suitable for traders, analysts, risk managers, marketers, sales people, professionals in the derivatives industry, and financial professionals in general who have an interest in the concurrent status of the exotic derivatives market. It is also of great interest to professors and graduate students who want to catch up with the ever growing innovation process in the derivatives industry. Scientists, engineers, computer programers, and other professionals may also find the book an efficient way to grasp some financial ideas and connect financial products with mathematical tools.ORThis is the first systematic and extensive book on exotic options. The book covers essentially all popular exotic options currently trading in the Over-the-Counter (OTC) market, from digitals, quantos, spread options, lookback options, Asian options, vanilla barrier options, to various types of exotic barrier options and other options. Each type of exotic options is largely written in a separate chapter, beginnning with the basic concepts of the products and then moving on to how to price them in closed-form solutions. Many pricing formulae and analyses which have not previously appeared in the literature are included and illustrated with detailed examples. It will be of great interest to traders, marketers, analysts, risk managers, professors, graduate students, and anyone who is interested in what is going on in the rapidly changing financial market.
