High-order compact finite difference scheme for option pricing in stochastic volatility with contemporaneous jump models

Computational Finance 2019-03-08 v2

Abstract

We extend the scheme developed in B. D\"uring, A. Pitkin, "High-order compact finite difference scheme for option pricing in stochastic volatility jump models", 2019, to the so-called stochastic volatility with contemporaneous jumps (SVCJ) model, derived by Duffie, Pan and Singleton. The performance of the scheme is assessed through a number of numerical experiments, using comparisons against a standard second-order central difference scheme. We observe that the new high-order compact scheme achieves fourth order convergence and discuss the effects on efficiency and computation time.
