We now derive the Black-Scholes PDE for a call-option on a non-dividend paying stock with strike K and maturity T . We assume that the stock price follows a geometric Brownian motion so that dSt = µSt dt + σSt dWt (1) where Wt is a standard Brownian motion. We also assume that interest rates are constant so that $1 invested in the cash account at time 0 will be worth Bt := $ exp(rt) at time t. We will denote by C(S‚ t) the value of the call option at time t. By Itˆ’s lemma we know that

Chapter 14 14.3. Explain the principle of risk-neutral valuation. The price of an option or other derivative when expressed in terms of the price of the underlying stock is independent of risk preferences. Options therefore have the same value in a risk-neutral world as they do in the real world. We may therefore assume that the world is risk neutral for the purposes of valuing options. This simplifies the analysis. In a risk-neutral world all securities have an expected return equal to risk-free
