Abstract

Zhu and He [(2018). A new closed-form formula for pricing European options under a skew Brownian motion. The European Journal of Finance 24(12): 1063–1074] provided an innovative closed-form solution by replacing the standard Brownian motion in the Black–Scholes framework using a particular skew Brownian motion. Their formula involves numerically integrating the product of the Guassian density and corresponding distribution function. Being different from their pricing formula, we derive a much simpler formula that only involves the Gaussian distribution function and Owen's $T$ function.
