In this paper, we investigate three methods for computing price sensitivities (or greeks) of an Asian option, namely, finite difference methods, a likelihood ratio method, and a pathwise method and we analyze the outputs. The efficiency of results is evaluated by means of Monte Carlo with and without, variance reduction technique.
In this paper, we use the Monte Carlo simulation (MC) to calculate delta of an Asian option. Where delta measures the rate of change of option value (V) with respect to changes in the underlying asset's price (S): ∆ = ∂V ∂S. A. Moussi et al. Moreover, we use the quadratic congruential pseudorandom numbers generator, which have the following form: X n+1 = (aX 2 n + bX n + c) mod m, in order to evaluate its performance. We also compare results with two other chosen congruential generators.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
