The option pricing of Black와 Scholes (1973) and Merton (1973) has been widely reported to fail to reflect the time varying volatility of financial time series in many real applications. For example, Duan (1995) proposed GARCH option pricing method through Monte Carlo simulation. However, financial time series is known to follow a fat-tailed and leptokurtic probability distribution, which is not explained by Duan (1995). In this paper, in order to overcome such defects, we proposed the option pricing method based on GARCH models with normal mixture errors. According to the analysis of KOSPI200 option price data, the option pricing based on GARCH models with normal mixture errors outperformed the option pricing based on GARCH models with normal errors in the unstable period with high volatility.

The Korean Won-Dollar exchange markets showed radical price movements in the late 1990s and 2008. Therefore it provides good sources for studying volatility phenomena. Using the GARCH option models, I analysed how the prices of foreign exchange options react volatilities in the foreign exchange spot prices. For this I compared the explanatory power of three option models(Black and Scholes, Duan, Heston and Nandi), using the Won-Dollar OTC option markets data from 2006 to 2013. I estimated the parameters using MLE and calculated the mean square pricing errors. According to the my empirical studies, the pricing errors of Duan, Black and Scholes models are 0.1%. And the pricing errors of the Heston and Nandi model is greatest among the three models. So I would like to recommend using Duan or Black and Scholes model for hedging the foreign exchange risks. Finally, the historical average of spot volatilities is about 14%, so trading the options around 5% may lead to serious losses to sellers.

본 논문에서는 Duan(1995)이 개발한 GARCH 주식옵션가격결정모형을 통화옵션에 적용시켜 GARCH 통화옵션가격결정모형을 유도한 다음, 이를 Garman-Kohlhagen 모형과 유효성을 비교하여 다음과 같은 연구결과를 얻었다. 만기별 및 옵션의 상태별(OTM, ATM, ITM)로 GARCH 통화옵션가격결정모형의 가격오차가 Garman-Kohlhagen 모형보다 일관되게 낮게 나타났다. 이는 GARCH 통화옵션가격결정모형이 Garman-Kohlhagen모형보다 통화옵션의 평가에 더 유용한 모형임을 의미한다. 따라서 통화옵션의 가격을 예측할 때는 환율변동의 이분산성을 고려하여 환율의 변동성을 추정함으로써 통화옵션가격의 예측력을 제고시킬 수 있다고 생각한다. 그러나 GARCH 통화옵션가격결정모형의 모형가격이 시장가격과 상당한 편차를 보이는 경우도 있기 때문에 향후 통화옵션가격결정모형을 계속 발전시키는 과정에서 이자율의 확률적 특성을 반영하거나 환율변동의 점프특성을 도입해야 한다고 생각한다.

Soybean has been cultivated in China for 5,000 years. The soybean cyst neamtode (SCN), Heterodra glycines, was recongnized in Northeastern China in 1899. Currently, it is known to occur in 12 provinces. The biology of SCN was investigated in several provinces. Six races of SCN were identified (race 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7). About f10,000 soybean germplasm lines were evaluated for their resistance to race 1, 3, 4 and 5 of SCN. At least two black-seeded cultivars are resistant to all four races. Several tolerant soybean cultivars with yellow seed coat were released and are in production. Additional resistant cultivars are being developed. Nematicides were not applied in production Potential biocontrol agents and related aspects are being investigated.
