Popis: The paper develops a class of continuous timestochastic volatility models, which generate asset price returnsthat are approximately Student t distributed. Using thecriterion of local risk minimisation in an incomplete marketsetting, option prices are computed. It is shown that impliedvolatility smile and skew patterns of the type often observed inthe markets can be obtained from this class of stochasticvolatility models.
