Abstract

We derive the density process of the minimal entropy martingale measure in the stochastic volatility model proposed by Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard [2]. The density is represented by the logarithm of the value function for an investor with exponential utility and no claim issued, and a Feynman-Kac representation of this function is provided. The dynamics of the processes determining the price and volatility are explicitly given under the minimal entropy martingale measure, and we derive a Black & Scholes equation with integral term for the price dynamics of derivatives. It turns out that the minimal entropy price of a derivative is given by the solution of a coupled system of two integro-partial differential equations.
