Price Derivative Instruments

Analyze equity option valuation and sensitivity

An equity derivative is a contract whose value is at least partly derived from one or more underlying equity securities. The Financial Instruments Toolbox™ provides additional functionality to price, compute sensitivity and hedging analysis to many equity securities. You can price Vanilla, Asian, Lookback, Barrier, and Spread options with pricing models that include lattice models, Monte Carlo simulations, and multiple closed-form solutions. For more information, see Price Equity, FX, Commodity, or Energy Instruments (Financial Instruments Toolbox).
