  • 307439 Ferdig Master Thesis
    Master's Thesis Using Derivatives And Structured Products To Enhance Investment Performance In A Low-Yielding Environment - COPENHAGEN BUSINESS SCHOOL - MSc Finance And Investments Maria Gjelsvik Berg P˚al-AndreasIversen Supervisor: Søren Plesner Date Of Submission: 28.04.2017 Characters (Ink. Space): 189.349 Pages: 114 ABSTRACT This paper provides an investigation of retail investors' possibility to enhance their investment performance in a low-yielding environment by using derivatives. The current low-yielding financial market makes safe investments in traditional vehicles, such as money market funds and safe bonds, close to zero- or even negative-yielding. Some retail investors are therefore in need of alternative investment vehicles that can enhance their performance. By conducting Monte Carlo simulations and difference in mean testing, we test for enhancement in performance for investors using option strategies, relative to investors investing in the S&P 500 index. This paper contributes to previous papers by emphasizing the downside risk and asymmetry in return distributions to a larger extent. We find several option strategies to outperform the benchmark, implying that performance enhancement is achievable by trading derivatives. The result is however strongly dependent on the investors' ability to choose the right option strategy, both in terms of correctly anticipated market movements and the net premium received or paid to enter the strategy. 1 Contents Chapter 1 - Introduction4 Problem Statement................................6 Methodology...................................7 Limitations....................................7 Literature Review.................................8 Structure..................................... 12 Chapter 2 - Theory 14 Low-Yielding Environment............................ 14 How Are People Affected By A Low-Yield Environment?........ 16 Low-Yield Environment's Impact On The Stock Market........

  • 11 Option Payoffs and Option Strategies
    11 Option Payoffs and Option Strategies Answers to Questions and Problems 1. Consider a call option with an exercise price of $80 and a cost of $5. Graph the profits and losses at expira- tion for various stock prices. 73 74 CHAPTER 11 OPTION PAYOFFS AND OPTION STRATEGIES 2. Consider a put option with an exercise price of $80 and a cost of $4. Graph the profits and losses at expiration for various stock prices. ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS AND PROBLEMS 75 3. For the call and put in questions 1 and 2, graph the profits and losses at expiration for a straddle comprising these two options. If the stock price is $80 at expiration, what will be the profit or loss? At what stock price (or prices) will the straddle have a zero profit? With a stock price at $80 at expiration, neither the call nor the put can be exercised. Both expire worthless, giving a total loss of $9. The straddle breaks even (has a zero profit) if the stock price is either $71 or $89. 4. A call option has an exercise price of $70 and is at expiration. The option costs $4, and the underlying stock trades for $75. Assuming a perfect market, how would you respond if the call is an American option? State exactly how you might transact. How does your answer differ if the option is European? With these prices, an arbitrage opportunity exists because the call price does not equal the maximum of zero or the stock price minus the exercise price. To exploit this mispricing, a trader should buy the call and exercise it for a total out-of-pocket cost of $74.

These products offer a unique approach to protecting one’s portfolio and making strategic bets on future market volatility. However, lack of understanding of these products can be potentially dangerous as they can change dramatically in value within extremely short time-frames. Investors must be wary of using these products improperly; failure to adequately assess the risk of using volatility products can deliver devastating losses to one’s portfolio.

  • CHAPTER 20 Financial Options
    CHAPTER 20 Financial Options Chapter Synopsis 20.1 Option Basics A financial option gives its owner the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a financial asset at a fixed price on or until a specified future date. A call option gives the owner the right to buy an asset. A put option gives the owner the right to sell the asset. When a holder of an option enforces the agreement and buys or sells the asset at the agreed-upon price, the holder is said to be exercising an option. The option buyer, or holder, holds the right to exercise the option and has a long position in the contract. The option seller, or writer, sells (or writes) the option and has a short position in the contract. The exercise, or strike, price is the price the contract allows the owner to buy or sell the asset. The most commonly traded options are written on stocks; however, options on other financial assets also exist, such as options on stock indices like the S&P 500. Using an option to reduce risk is called hedging. Options can also be used to speculate, or bet on the future price of an asset. American options allow their holders to exercise the option on any date up to and including a final date called the expiration date. European options allow their holders to exercise the option only on the expiration date. Although most traded options are American, European options trade in a few circumstances. For example, European options written on the S&P 500 index exist.

Germany FX Volatility Smile Construction Dimitri Reiswich, Uwe Wystup Version 1: September, 8th 2009 Version 2: March, 20th 2010 Abstract The foreign exchange options market is one of the largest and most liquid OTC derivative markets in the world. Surprisingly, very little is known in the aca- demic literature about the construction of the most important object in this market: The implied volatility smile. The smile construction procedure and the volatility quoting mechanisms are FX specific and differ significantly from other markets. We give a detailed overview of these quoting mechanisms and introduce the resulting smile construction problem. Furthermore, we provide a new formula which can be used for an efficient and robust FX smile construction.
