Abstract
We calculate the leading term of asymptotics of the prices of barrier options and first touch digitals near the barrier for wide classes of Levy processes with exponential jump densities, including Variance Gamma model, KoBoL (a.k.a. CGMY) model and Normal Inverse Gaussian processes. In the case of processes of infinite activity and finite variation, with the drift pointing from the barrier, we prove that the price is discontinuous at the boundary. In many cases, we calculate the second term of asymptotics as well.
