Cheatsheet of Latex Code for Financial Engineering and Quantitative equations

Navigation

In this blog, we will summarize the latex code of most popular equations for financial engineering. We will cover important topics, including Black-Scholes formula, Value at Risk(VaR), etc.

1. Black-Scholes Formula

  • Black-Scholes Formula

    Equation

    1.1 Call Formula

    1.2 Put Formula

    Parameters

    Latex Code
                C(S_{t},K,t)=S_{t}\Phi (d_{1})-Ke^{-r(T-t)}\Phi (d_{2})
            
                P(S_{t},K,t)=Ke^{-r(T-t)}\Phi (-d_{2})-S_{t}\Phi (-d_{1})
            
                d_{1}=\frac{\ln \frac{S_{t}}{K} + (r + \frac{\sigma^2}{2})\tau}{\sigma\sqrt{\tau}}
            
                d_{2}=d_{1}-\sigma\sqrt{\tau}
            
    Explanation

    Latex code for Black-Scholes Formula. I will briefly introduce the notations in this formulation.

    • : The spot price at time t for dividend stock.
    • K: Strike price
    • T: Maturity Time, T-t equals to time to maturity
    • : constant volatility of the asset
    • r: risk-free rate of interest
    Detailed explanation can be found in this document Four Derivations of the Black-Scholes Formula.

  • 2. Value at Risk(VaR)

    • Value at Risk(VaR) Formula

      Equation


      Latex Code
                  \text{prob}(\Delta P < -\text{VaR})=1-\alpha
              
      Explanation

      Latex code for Value at Risk Formula. I will briefly introduce the notations in this formulation.

      • VaR: Value at Risk
      • : Confidence level that asset price will fall below the target
      • : Price at time t
      • : The difference in price from time t to t+1
      Detailed explanation can be found in this document Four Derivations of the Black-Scholes Formula.
