Option Pricing Under the Markov-switching Framework Defined by Three States

Castoe, Minna, Raspudic, Teo January 2020 (has links)
An exact solution for the valuation of the options of the European style can be obtained using the Black-Scholes model. However, some of the limitations of the Black-Scholes model are said to be inconsistent such as the constant volatility of the stock price which is not the case in real life. In this thesis, the Black-Scholes model is extended to a model where the volatility is fully stochastic and changing over time, modelled by Markov chain with three states - high, medium and low. Under this model, we price options of both types, European and American, using Monte Carlo simulation.
