Abstract

In this paper, we provide a pricing–hedging duality for the model-independent superhedging price with respect to a prediction set Ξ⊆C[0,T]$\Xi \subseteq C[0,T]$, where the superhedging property needs to hold pathwise, but only for paths lying in Ξ$\Xi $. For any Borel-measurable claim ξ$\xi $ bounded from below, the superhedging price coincides with the supremum over all pricing functionals EQ[ξ]$\mathbb{E}_{\mathbb{Q}}[ \xi ]$ with respect to martingale measures ℚ concentrated on the prediction set Ξ$\Xi $. This allows us to include beliefs about future paths of the price process expressed by the set Ξ$\Xi $, while eliminating all those which are seen as impossible. Moreover, we provide several examples to justify our setup.
