Vasicek interest rate model under Lévy process and pricing bond option.

In this paper, we concentrate on the European option pricing problem in incomplete markets by taking Vasicek stochastic interest rate model into account and expanding it in accordance with a Lévy process named Variance Gamma (VG) process. In doing so, first, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the stochastic differential equation of this model. Then, by the means of the hedging and replicating techniques, pricing formulas for the bond and, in succession, for European options are established. Finally, from a numerical point of view, we will analyze the value of a bond based on our consideration model and also, we will study a European call option bond price. All these results are reported through the Monte-Carlo simulation method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
