Abstract

We implement some recent Monte Carlo estimators for option pricing and assess their performance in finite samples. We find that the accuracy of these estimators is remarkable, even when more exotic financial derivatives are considered. Finally, we implement the Glasserman and Yu (2004b) methodology to price Asian Bermudan options and basket options.
