Price Equity, FX, Commodity, or Energy Instruments

Create equity, FX, commodity, or energy instrument object, associate the object with a model, and specify pricing method

An equity derivative is a contract whose value is at least partly derived from one or more underlying equity, foreign exchange (FX), commodity, or energy securities. This toolbox provides functionality to price, compute sensitivity and hedging analysis to many equity securities. You can price vanilla, Asian, lookback, barrier, and spread options with pricing models that include lattice models, Monte Carlo simulations, multiple closed-form solutions, and finite differences methods.

The object-based framework supports a workflow for creating instruments, models, and pricer objects to price financial instruments. Using these objects, you can price interest-rate, inflation, equity, commodity, FX, or credit derivative instruments. The object-based workflow is an alternative to pricing financial instruments using functions. Working with modular objects for instruments, models, and pricers, you can easily reuse these objects to compare instrument prices for different models and pricing engines. You can use the object-based workflow to price a single instrument or to price a collection of instruments in a portfolio. For more information on the workflow, see Get Started with Workflows Using Object-Based Framework for Pricing Financial Instruments.

Create an equity, FX, or commodity instrument object using fininstrument, then associate a model using finmodel, and then specify a pricing method using finpricer.
