摘要

In this paper, we propose an efficient and accurate method for pricing Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) under time-changed Lévy processes. Suppose that the GMDB payoff depends on a dollar cost averaging (DCA) style periodic investment, and the activity rate process in stochastic time change is modeled by a square-root process. We develop a recursive method to derive the closed form valuation formula by using the frame duality projection method. Numerical examples are reported for demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach and illustrating the interplay between contract parameters and the valuation.
