摘要
Purpose - To study stochastic volatility in the pricing of options. Design/methodology/approach - Random-coefficient autoregressive and generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic models are studied. The option-pricing formula is viewed as a moment of a truncated normal distribution. Findings - Kurtosis for RCA and for GARCH process is derived. Application of random coefficient GARCH kurtosis in analytical approximation of option pricing is discussed. Originality/value - Findings are useful in financial modeling.
