Research Abstract |
In this research, we proposed analytical valuation schemes for American options, which are very important in financial practice but difficult in evaluation except for numerical one, with high accuracy and flexibility enough for practical applications. Especially, we contributed to improvement in computing accuracy and speed through i)the method for approximation of “optimal exercise region” and ii)approximation of solution to a certain type of Backward Stochastic Differential Equation satisfied by American options.
