Abstract

This paper proposes a pricing method for path-dependent derivatives with discrete monitoring when an underlying asset price is driven by a time-changed Lévy process. The key to our method is to derive a backward recurrence relation for computing the multivariate characteristic function of the intertemporal joint distribution of the time-changed Lévy process. Using the derived representation of the characteristic function, we obtain semi-analytical pricing formulas for geometric Asian, forward start, barrier, fader and lookback options, all of which are discretely monitored.
