Abstract

This paper studies the European option pricing on the zero-coupon bond in which the Skew Vasicek model uses to predict the interest rate amount. To do this, we apply the skew Brownian motion as the random part of the model and show that results of the model predictions are better than other types of the model. Besides, we obtain an analytical formula for pricing the zero-coupon bond and find the European option price by constructing a portfolio that contains the option and a share of the bond. Since the skew Brownian motion is not a martingale, thus we add transaction costs to the portfolio, where the time between trades follows the exponential distribution. Finally, some numerical results are presented to show the efficiency of the proposed model.
