| Tiivistelmä: | In this paper we give a detailed description of the Volatility Index (VIX) calculated by the Chicago Board of Options Exchange (CBOE). It turns out that the VIX shows a strong mean-reversion behavior. This finding has very strong implications on the pricing of derivative products based on such an index. A pricing model on the VIX should therefore explicitly allow for mean-reversion of the underlying process. Futhermore we show that a volatility index provides important information about the risk structure of the market. |
