Valuation and parities for exchange options

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

Valuation and parity formulas for both European-style and American-style exchange options are presented in a general financial model allowing for jumps, possibility of default and "bubbles" in asset prices. The formulas are given via expectations of auxiliary probabilities using the change-of-numeraire technique. Extensive discussion is provided regarding the way that folklore results such as Merton's no-early-exercise theorem and traditional parity relations have to be altered in this more versatile framework.
