Abstract: In this paper, we address the question of the optimal Delta and Vega hedging of a book of exotic options when there are execution costs associated with the trading of vanilla options. In a framework where exotic options are priced using a market model (e.g. a local volatility model recalibrated continuously to vanilla option prices) and vanilla options prices are driven by a stochastic volatility model, we show that, using simple approximations, the optimal dynamic Delta and Vega hedging strategies can be computed easily using variational techniques.
