Résumé
The Black model (sometimes known as the Black-76 model) is a variant of the Black–Scholes option pricing model. Its primary applications are for pricing options on future contracts, bond options, interest rate cap and floors, and swaptions. It was first presented in a paper written by Fischer Black in 1976.
Black's model can be generalized into a class of models known as log-normal forward models, also referred to as LIBOR market model.
The Black formula is similar to the Black–Scholes formula for valuing stock options except that the spot price of the underlying is replaced by a discounted futures price F.
Suppose there is constant risk-free interest rate r and the futures price F(t) of a particular underlying is log-normal with constant volatility σ. Then the Black formula states the price for a European call option of maturity T on a futures contract with strike price K and delivery date T (with ) is
The corresponding put price is
where
and N(.) is the cumulative normal distribution function.
Note that T' doesn't appear in the formulae even though it could be greater than T. This is because futures contracts are marked to market and so the payoff is realized when the option is exercised. If we consider an option on a forward contract expiring at time T' > T, the payoff doesn't occur until T' . Thus the discount factor is replaced by since one must take into account the time value of money. The difference in the two cases is clear from the derivation below.
The Black formula is easily derived from the use of Margrabe's formula, which in turn is a simple, but clever, application of the Black–Scholes formula.
The payoff of the call option on the futures contract is . We can consider this an exchange (Margrabe) option by considering the first asset to be and the second asset to be the riskless bond paying off $1 at time . Then the call option is exercised at time when the first asset is worth more than riskless bonds. The assumptions of Margrabe's formula are satisfied with these assets.
