- Abstract
- This paper studies derivatives to prepare for financial risk from unexpected events. It is difficult for firms and financial institutions to hedge losses triggered by natural catastrophes such as earthquakes, by using derivative securities with fixed initiation and maturities. In this context, we consider an option that is initiated at random by an unexpected event, and moreover, is connected with a barrier of knock-in or knock-out type for asset price monitoring until the time of event. We derive closed-form valuation formulas for these options. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
