Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the pricing of European option when the riskfree interest rate follows a jump process. An expression for European call price is first obtained in the case of constant volatility. Then we present a general formulation which takes care of the variation of volatility. In this general formulation we utilize a point process filtering technique to estimate the state process. Finally we carry out some numerical simulation of our results.
