Following the time-based replication strategy, we present the explicit expressions for the present values of expected hedging errors and transaction costs. The results are derived by using the adjusted hedging volatility View the MathML source proposed by Leland. Furthermore, the estimated values of expected hedging errors, transaction costs and total costs are obtained from a simulation approach for comparison. Finally, the costs of maturity guarantee for equity-linked life insurance contracts inclusive of transaction costs are discussed.Related records: En: Insurance : mathematics and economics. - Oxford : Elsevier, 1990- = ISSN 0167-6687. - 01/09/2014 Volumen 58 Número 1 - septiembre 2014 Other categories: 6Rights: In Copyright (InC)Referencias externas:
