Abstract: | The authors reexamine and extend the stochastic volatility model of Stein and Stein (1991) where volatility follows a mean-reverting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Using Fourier inversion techniques they are able to allow for correlation between instantaneous volatilities and the underlying stock returns. A closed-form pricing solution for European options is derived and some numerical examples are given. |
