The Pricing of Contingent Claims in a Multivariate Gamma Distributed Economy by Vitiello, Luiz, Rebelo, Ivonia

“…In this paper we establish a Risk Neutral Valuation Relationship and develop a framework for pricing multivariate European-style contingent claims in a discrete-time economy using a multivariate gamma distribution. In our framework, risk neutrality is obtained by using market equilibrium conditions, leading to preference-free contingent claim pricing equations. …”
