Abstract:

In common stock loan, lenders face the risk that their loans will not be repaid if the stock price falls below loan, which limits the issuance and circulation of stock loans. The empirical test suggests that the log-return series of stock price in the US market reject the normal distribution and admit instead a subclass of the asymmetric distribution. In this paper, we investigate the model of the margin call stock loan problem under the assumption that the return of stock follows the finite moment log-stable process (FMLS). In this case, the pricing model of the margin call stock loan can be described by a space-fractional partial differential equation with a time-varying free boundary condition. We transform the free boundary problem to a linear complementarity problem, and the fully-implicit finite difference method that we used is unconditionally stable in both the integer and fractional order. The numerical experiments are carried out to demonstrate differences of the margin call stock loan model under the FMLS and the standard normal distribution. Last, we analyze the impact of key parameters in our model on the margin call stock loan evaluation and give some reasonable explanation.
