Abstract

In this paper, we study the valuation of options with hybrid default risk when the underlying assets are driven by a two-factor stochastic volatility model. The hybrid default model is developed by integrating the reduced-form and structural models, and the correlation between the underlying asset and default risk is considered. In the proposed framework, we adopt the probabilistic approach based on the measure-change technique to obtain an explicit pricing formula for the option. Finally, we present several numerical examples including discussions.
