They form as an underlying for various exotic derivatives. The objective of this thesis is to understand pricing models of European puts and calls - in a way that is consistent with the market quoted prices. Three different models are considered for it, Dupire model - deterministic local volatility model; Heston model - simple mean-reverting stochastic volatility model; and SABR model - complex non-mean-reverting stochastic volatility model. Further, their re- lation to market quoted Black-Scholes implied volatility is explored. Advantages and disadvantages of each model are discussed when applying it to the options on S&P500. 2019-08-26 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1554809434581109 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1554809434581109 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
