A test for multivariate skew-normality based on its canonical form

Abstract A test to assess if a sample comes from a multivariate skew-normal distribution is proposed. The test statistic is obtained from the canonical form of the multivariate skew-normal distribution and its null distribution is derived. The power of the proposed test is evaluated through Monte Carlo simulations for different conveniently chosen alternatives. Finally, three numerical examples are presented for the purpose of illustration

Методы вычисления опционной составляющей структурированного финансового продукта. Приложение

In present article practical realization of each of three methods of definition of fair cost option is considered by a component of the structured financial product. Final results of the price of an option for a rate of currency pair USD/RUR are resulted. The deviation of cost of an option from rated the prices at a stock exchange is calculated
