Option starts at a future time, T1
Most common in employee stock option plans
Often structured so that strike price

it is a put or call
This is a package!

Decomposition of a Call Option
Long Asset-or-Nothing optionShort Cash-or-Nothing option where payoff
is K Value = S0 N(d1) – e–rT KN(d2)

Lookback Options (page 536)
Lookback call pays ST – Smin at time T
Allows buyer to buy stock at lowest observed price in some interval of time
Lookback put pays Smax– ST at time T
Allows buyer to sell stock at highest observed price in some interval of time
Analytic solution

Shout Options (page 537)
Buyer can ‘shout’ once during option life
Final payoff is either
Usual option payoff, max(ST – K, 0), or
Intrinsic value at time of shout, Sτ – K
Payoff: max(ST – Sτ , 0) + Sτ – K
Similar to lookback option but cheaper
How can a binomial tree be used to value a shout option?

Asian Options (page 538)
Payoff related to average stock price
Average Price options pay:
Call: max(Save – K, 0)
Put: max(K – Save , 0)
Average Strike options pay:
Call: max(ST – Save , 0)
Put: max(Save – ST , 0)

Payoff is max(VT – UT, 0)

Basket Options (page 541)
A basket option is an option to buy or sell
a portfolio of assets
This can be valued by calculating the first two moments of the value of the basket and then assuming it is lognormal

How Difficult is it to Hedge Exotic Options?
In some cases exotic options are easier to hedge than the
corresponding vanilla options
(e.g., Asian options)
In other cases they are more difficult to hedge (e.g., barrier options)

matched it at all interior points of the boundary
Static options replication can be contrasted with dynamic options replication where we have to trade continuously to match the option
Trang 22Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives, 6th Edition, Copyright © John C Hull 2005
22.22
Example
A 9-month up-and-out call option an a
non-dividend paying stock where S0 = 50, K = 50, the barrier is 60, r = 10%, and σ = 30%
Any boundary can be chosen but the natural one is
c (60, t ) = 0 when 0 ≤ t ≤ 0.75

22.24
Example continued
(See Table 22.1, page 543)
We can do this as follows:
+1.00 call with maturity 0.75 & strike 50 –2.66 call with maturity 0.75 & strike 60 +0.97 call with maturity 0.50 & strike 60 +0.28 call with maturity 0.25 & strike 60

22.25
Example (continued)
compared with 0.31 for the up-and out option
replicating portfolio converges to the value of the exotic option
horizontal boundary the value of the replicating portfolio reduces to 0.38; with 100 points being matched it reduces to 0.32
