spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/10045 Option pricing using hidden Markov models Anderson, Michael Guo, Renkuan Mathematics of Finance Includes bibliographical references (leaves 144-149). This work will present an option pricing model that accommodates parameters that vary over time, whilst still retaining a closed-form expression for option prices: the Hidden Markov Option Pricing Model. This is possible due to the macro-structure of this model and provides the added advantage of ensuring efficient computation of option prices. This model turns out to be a very natural extension to the Black-Scholes model, allowing for time-varying input parameters. 2014-12-26T06:16:20Z 2014-12-26T06:16:20Z 2006 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10045 eng application/pdf Department of Statistical Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
