Abstract
ABSTRACTDerivative securities are frequently priced within the Black-Scholes methodology. Theoretically this entails maintaining a hedge consisting of the underlying asset and cash which needs to be rebalanced continuously. In practice, traders would only rebalance such hedges on a discrete basis. We examine the effects of discrete rebalancing of derivative hedges written on the FTSE/JSE TOP40 index.
