Cover Story: In this paper, we propose a modified local risk-neutral valuation relationship (mLRNVR) for the GARCH option-pricing models. In our mLRNVR, the conditional variances under two measures are designed to be different, and the variance process is more persistent in the risk-neutral measure than in the physical one, so that one is able to capture the variance risk premium. Empirical estimation exercises have shown that the GARCH option-pricing models under our mLRNVR are able to price the SPX one-month variance swap rate, i.e., VIX, accurately. Our research suggests that one should use our mLRNVR when pricing options with GARCH models. View this paper.

Professional forecasters can rely on an econometric model to create their forecasts. It is usually unknown to what extent they adjust an econometric model-based forecast. In this paper we show, while making just two simple assumptions, that it is pos...
