"Exponential Utility Maximization and the Minimal Entropy
Martingale Measure in Affine Stochastic Volatility Models"
Abstract:
We show that the minimal entropy martingale measure (MEMM) exists if the
dynamics of multivariate assets belongs to a class of affine stochastic
volatility models characterized by their affine structure and an
additional structure condition. In this framework we solve the
corresponding exponential utility maximization problem. As an
application this leads to explicit formulas in some stochastic
volatility models allowing for multivariate volatilities. Since the
knowledge of the MEMM is a key ingredient for asymptotic exponential
utility-based pricing and hedging, we use our results in order to
compute first-order approximations of utility-indifference prices and
utility-based hedging strategies in affine stochastic volatility models.
We illustrate our results with a numerical example in the superposition
model of Barndorff-Nielsen & Shephard.
