Main Article Content

Javed Hussain, Pervez Ali

Abstract

In this paper, our focus is to derive the estimates satisfied by the risk-neutral prices of a class of weather derivatives, contingent upon temperature which satisfies G-stochastic differential equation driven by nonlinear G-Brownian motion.
