Abstract: |
Target Volatility Funds are becoming a
more and more popular asset class amongst Variable Annuity product designers.
After the recent global crisis these funds provided a decent way to assure
the guarantees that investors find so attractive. However, pricing of these
guarantees highly depends on the modelling
assumptions we use. Although this is an exciting and demanding problem, not
much attention has been shed on this topic in the academic literature. In my
work I extend some of the existing results to the Barndorff-Nielsen–Shephard model and to a Lévy-process with stochastic time. |
