Allende, H., Elias, C., & Torres, S. (2004). Estimation of the option prime: Microsimulation of backward stochastic differential equations. Int. Stat. Rev., 72(1), 107–121.
Abstract: A mathematical statistical model is needed to obtain an option prime and create a hedging strategy. With formulas derived from stochastic differential equations, the primes for US Dollar/Chilean Pesos currency options using a prime calculator are obtained. Furthermore, a backward simulation of the option prime trajectory is used with a numerical method created for backward stochastic differential equations. The use of statistics in finance is highly important in order to develop complex products.

Abstract: In numerous applications, data are observed at random times. Our main purpose is to study a model observed at random times that incorporates a longmemory noise process with a fractional Brownian Hurst exponent H. We propose a least squares estimator in a linear regression model with long-memory noise and a random sampling time called “jittered sampling”. Specifically, there is a fixed sampling rate 1/N, contaminated by an additive noise (the jitter) and governed by a probability density function supported in [0, 1/N]. The strong consistency of the estimator is established, with a convergence rate depending on N and the Hurst exponent. A Monte Carlo analysis supports the relevance of the theory and produces additional insights, with several levels of long-range dependence (varying the Hurst index) and two different jitter densities.

Abstract: In this study, we prove the strong consistency of the least squares estimator in a random sampled linear regression model with long-memory noise and an independent set of random times given by renewal process sampling. Additionally, we illustrate how to work with a random number of observations up to time T = 1. A simulation study is provided to illustrate the behavior of the different terms, as well as the performance of the estimator under various values of the Hurst parameter H.
