Bayesian Option Pricing Using Asymmetric GARCH

G.R.E.Q.A.M. from Universite Aix-Marseille III

Abstract: This paper shows how one can compute option prices from a Bayesian inference viewpoint, using an econometric model for the dynamics of the return and of the volatility of the underlying asset. The proposed evaluation of an option is the predictive expectation of its payoff function. The predictive distribution of this function provides a natural metric with respect to which the predictive option price, or other option evaluations, can be gauged.
