Abstract

The aim of this work is to use a duality approach to study the pricing of derivatives depending on two stocks driven by a bidimensional Lévy process. The main idea is to apply Girsanov's Theorem for Lévy processes, in order to reduce the posed problem to a problem with one Lévy driven stock in an auxiliary market, baptized as "dual market". In this way, we extend the results obtained by Gerber and Shiu [5] for two-dimensional Brownian motion.
