PyFENG: Python Financial ENGineering

PyFENG is the python implemention of the standard option pricing models in financial engineering.

Models implemented

• Black-Scholes-Merton (and displaced diffusion) model
• Bachelier (Normal) model
• Constant-elasticity-of-variance (CEV) model
• Stochastic-alpha-beta-rho (SABR) model
• Hyperbolic normal stochastic volatility (NSVh) model
• Heston model
• Ornstein-Uhlenbeck driven stochastic volatility model

About the package

• It assumes variables are numpy arrays. So the computations are naturally vectorized.
• It is purely in Python (i.e., no C, C++, cython).
• It is implemented with python class.
• It is intended for, but not limited to, academic use. By providing reference models, it saves researchers' time.

Installation

pip install pyfeng

For upgrade,

pip install pyfeng --upgrade

import pyfeng as pf
m = pf.Bsm(sigma=0.2, intr=0.05, divr=0.1)
m.price(strike=np.arange(80, 121, 10), spot=100, texp=1.2)

sigma = np.array([[0.2], [0.5]])
m = pf.Bsm(sigma, intr=0.05, divr=0.1) # sigma in axis=0
