OFRC Working Papers Series from Oxford Financial Research Centre

Abstract: In this paper we show how to calculate European-style option prices when the log-stock and stock returns processes follow a symmetric Levy-Stable process. We extend our results to price European-style options when the log-stock process follows a skewed Levy-Stable process.
