A lending scheme for a system of interconnected banks with probabilistic constraints of failure

We derive a closed form solution for an optimal control problem related to an interbank lending schemes subject to terminal probability constraints on the failure of banks which are interconnected through a financial network. The derived solution applies to a real banks network by obtaining a general solution when the aforementioned probability constraints are assumed for all the banks. We also present a direct method to compute the systemic relevance parameter for each bank within the network.

Closed-End Formula for options linked to Target Volatility Strategies

Recent years have seen an emerging class of structured financial products based on options linked to dynamic asset allocation strategies. One of the most chosen approach is the so-called target volatility mechanism. It shifts between risky and riskless assets to control the volatility of the overall portfolio. Even if a series of articles have been already devoted to the analysis of options linked to the target volatility mechanism, this paper is the first, to the best of our knowledge, that tries to develop closed-end formulas for VolTarget options. In particular, we develop closed-end formulas for option prices and some key hedging parameters within a Black and Scholes setting, assuming the underlying follows a target volatility mechanism.
