Valuation of Insurance Products with Shout Options in a Jump-Diffusion Model

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2021, vol. 2021, 1-10

Abstract:

The insurance product with shout options which permit the holders to modify the contract rules is one of the most popular products in European and American markets today. Therefore, it is of great significance to price more precisely. A new mathematical model consisting of a partial differential inequality and constraint conditions is derived for the price of insurance products in a jump-diffusion model. The numerical experiments are performed to analyze the impact of parameters on the insurance product with shout put options, especially for the jump times and the quantities of shout opportunities. The experiment results show that the value of the product is strongly affected by the quantities of shouting opportunities, especially for high values of the underlying asset, while it is only weakly affected for low values. Meanwhile, another meaningful discovery is that the valuation has changed little as the jump times are less than five, while it has shown a sharp increase once the jump times are more than five. Furthermore, the indicator results of course grid errors show that the values of shout put options in the jump-diffusion model are more accurate than those in a Brownian motion.
