Option pricing and Esscher transform under regime switching

RJ Elliott, L Chan, TK Siu - Annals of Finance, 2005 - Springer
We consider the option pricing problem when the risky underlying assets are driven by
Markov-modulated Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM). That is, the market parameters, for …

Pricing volatility swaps under Heston's stochastic volatility model with regime switching

RJ Elliott, T Kuen Siu, L Chan - Applied Mathematical Finance, 2007 - Taylor & Francis
A model is developed for pricing volatility derivatives, such as variance swaps and volatility
swaps under a continuous‐time Markov‐modulated version of the stochastic volatility (SV) …

Fair valuation of participating policies with surrender options and regime switching

TK Siu - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2005 - Elsevier
We consider the fair valuation of a participating life insurance policy with surrender options
when the market values of the asset are modelled by Markov-modulated Geometric Brownian …

Asset allocation for a DC pension fund under regime switching environment

R Korn, TK Siu, A Zhang - European Actuarial Journal, 2011 - Springer
We consider the portfolio selection problem of a member of a defined contribution pension
plan in a hidden Markov-modulated economy modulated by a continuous-time, finite-state, …

Option pricing and filtering with hidden Markov-modulated pure-jump processes

RJ Elliott, TK Siu - Applied Mathematical Finance, 2013 - Taylor & Francis
This article discusses the pricing of derivatives in a continuous-time, hidden Markov-modulated,
pure-jump asset price model. The hidden Markov chain modulating the pure-jump asset …

Pricing options under a generalized Markov-modulated jump-diffusion model

RJ Elliott, TK Siu, L Chan, JW Lau - Stochastic Analysis and …, 2007 - Taylor & Francis
We consider the pricing of options when the dynamics of the risky underlying asset are driven
by a Markov-modulated jump-diffusion model. We suppose that the market interest rate, …

On supply chain coordination for false failure returns: A quantity discount contract approach

X Huang, SM Choi, WK Ching, TK Siu… - International Journal of …, 2011 - Elsevier
A large proportion of consumer returns fall into the category of false failure returns, which
refer to returns without functional defects. In this paper, we consider profits resulting from …

Impact of secondary market on consumer return policies and supply chain coordination

X Huang, JW Gu, WK Ching, TK Siu - Omega, 2014 - Elsevier
In this paper, we develop a unified model to study the inventory management problem of a
product and the coordination of the associated supply chain consisting of a single supplier …

A stochastic maximum principle for a Markov regime-switching jump-diffusion model and its application to finance

X Zhang, RJ Elliott, TK Siu - SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2012 - SIAM
This paper develops a sufficient stochastic maximum principle for a stochastic optimal
control problem, where the state process is governed by a continuous-time Markov regime-…

Optimal investment and reinsurance of an insurer with model uncertainty

X Zhang, TK Siu - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2009 - Elsevier
We introduce a novel approach to optimal investment–reinsurance problems of an insurance
company facing model uncertainty via a game theoretic approach. The insurance company …
