Abstract

We derive representations of local risk-minimization of call and put options for Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models: jump type stochastic volatility models whose squared volatility process is given by a non-Gaussian rnstein-Uhlenbeck process. The general form of Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models includes two parameters: volatility risk premium β\beta and leverage effect ρ\rho. Arai and Suzuki (2015, arxiv:1503.08589) dealt with the same problem under constraint β=12\beta=-\frac{1}{2}. In this paper, we relax the restriction on β\beta; and restrict ρ\rho to 00 instead. We introduce a Malliavin calculus under the minimal martingale measure to solve the problem.
