Moment Matching Method for Pricing Spread Options with Mean-Variance Mixture Lévy Motions

7 Sep 2021  ·  Dongdong Hu, Hasanjan Sayit, Svetlozar T. Rachev ·

The paper Borovkova et al. [4] uses moment matching method to obtain closed form formulas for spread and basket call option prices under log normal models. In this note, we also use moment matching method to obtain semi-closed form formulas for the price of spread options under exponential L\'evy models with mean-variance mixture. Unlike the semi-closed form formulas in Caldana and Fusai [5], where spread prices were expressed by using Fourier inversion formula for general price dynamics, our formula expresses spread prices in terms of the mixing distribution. Numerical tests show that our formulas give accurate spread prices also
