Insights on Time-consistent Deep Hedging under Elicitable Dynamic Risk Measures

We study deep hedging in the context of dynamics risk measures, where sequential decisions are time-consistent. Whereas the literature in such context mainly considers low-dimensional problems with simple environment dynamics, we tackle the high-dimensional problem of basket option hedging; we show

Deep Hedging with Options Using the Implied Volatility Surface

We propose a deep hedging framework for index option portfolios, grounded in a realistic market simulator that captures the joint dynamics of S&P 500 returns and the full implied volatility surface. Our approach integrates surface-informed decisions with multiple hedging instruments and explicitly a

Learning to Hedge Swaptions

This paper investigates the deep hedging framework, based on reinforcement learning (RL), for the dynamic hedging of swaptions, contrasting its performance with traditional sensitivity-based rho-hedging. We design agents under three distinct objective functions (mean squared error, downside risk, an

Catastrophic-risk-aware reinforcement learning with extreme-value-theory-based policy gradients

This paper tackles the problem of mitigating catastrophic risk (which is risk with very low frequency but very high severity) in the context of a sequential decision making process. This problem is particularly challenging due to the scarcity of observations in the far tail of the distribution of cu
