Abstract

Zusammenfassung Der vorliegende Beitrag befasst sich mit der Bestimmung der optimalen Hedge Ratio auf der Basis von Future-Kontrakten unter Zugrundelegung der Forderung, dass der Value at Risk der Hedge-Position minimiert werden soll. Unter Verwendung von Ergebnissen im Kontext von Quantilableitungen gelingt hier zunächst die Bestimmung einer allgemeinen strukturellen Lösung. Unter Ausnutzung der Eigenschaften von elliptischen Verteilungen gelingt darüber hinaus eine explizite Bestimmung der optimalen Hedge Ratio und damit eine systematische Verallgemeinerung der in der Literatur entwickelten korrespondierenden Lösung für den Normalverteilungsfall.
