6 Binomial Models What & Why? Binomial Model given S t, there only two possible values for S t+1, called up and down. Restrictive? Yes, but... the distribution of the total return, after many of these binomial price changes, becomes bell-shaped the binomial option price converges to the BMS price the binomial math is much more accessible than the BMS math BinMod can be used to value more complex derivatives that have no closed-form Black-Scholes type solution. Ways to explain the model all very similar: via hedging via replication in spot market (not here) (not here) forward yes yes

10 Our Example The Replication Approach The Hedging Approach The Risk-adjusted Probabilities Data S 0 = INR/MTL 100, r = 5%p.p.; r = %. Hence: F 0,1 = S r 0,1 1 + r 0, = = 101. S 1 is either S 1,u = 110 ( up ) or S 1,d = 95 ( down ). 1-period European-style call with X=INR/MTL S 1 C C 1 slope of exposure line (exposure): O exposure = C1,u C 1,d = 5 0 S 1,i S 1,d = 1/3 S 3,3=S 0uuu S =S uu exposure line S1
