In this analysis, two paths are followed: a Monte Carlo Simulation with 10,000 trials, considering three different volatilities (σ = 7.01%; σ = 12.78%; σ = 29.25%), and a comparison between the aforementioned Monte Carlo Simulation and Historical Data on the index’s performance since its inception in 1998. Aside from the valuation itself, this project also includes a probability and average lifespan analysis on the Express Certificate. From the Monte Carlo Simulation process, we observe that a higher volatility results in a lower product’s average present value and a lower probability of the investor earning back more than he or she paid for the product. From the comparison between Historical Data and the Monte Carlo Simulation, we infer that the Monte Carlo Simulation appears to be too optimistic when dealing with the possibility of the Certificate surviving until its full maturity. Additionally, the Simulation returns a higher product’s average present value and a higher probability of the investor earning back more than he or she paid for the product when compared to Historical Data on the performance of the index. Taking into account both sets of results, the product seems slightly overpriced.Instituto Superior de Economia e GestãoGaspar, Raquel M.Repositório da Universidade de LisboaAlmeida, Miguel Ramos de2023-08-23T13:24:25Z2023-062023-06-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.5/28195engAlmeida, Miguel Ramos de (2023). “A study about a fixed coupon express certificate linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 index : backtesting and performance assessment”.
