The forward-path method for pricing multi-asset American-style options under general diffusion processes

作者:

Highlights:

• Generalize the application of forward-path method to general diffusion model.

• Apply explicit and implicit Milstein–Taylor schemes to avoid solving equations.

• The method works as a plug-in with good flexibility.

• High accuracy in pricing American-style options by Least-Square Method.
