Abstract: AbstractIn this paper the stochastic volatility model of Stein and Stein is extended to treat the long memory character of the volatility. It is proposed to model the volatility by a mean reverting Langevin equation driven by fractional Brownian motions. The risk-minimizing hedging price for European call options is obtained and its computation is discussed.
