摘要:In this paper we perform an analysis of a capped reverse bonus certificate, the value of which is derived from the value of an underlying asset. A pricing formula for the portfolio replication method is applied to price the capped reverse bonus certificate. A replicating portfolio has profit that is identical to profit from a combination of positions in spot and derivative market, i.e. vanilla and exotic options. Based upon the theoretical option pricing models, the replicating portfolio for capped reverse bonus certificate on the Euro Stoxx 50 index is engineered. We design the capped reverse bonus certificate with various parameters and calculate the issue prices in the primary market. The profitability for the potential investor at the maturity date is provided. The relation between the profit change of the investor and parameters’ change is detected. The best capped reverse bonus certificate for every estimated development of the index is identified.
