MFE Study Guide
Introduction
The material in this quick study guide has been done to the best of my knowledge.Some topics are only covered briefly (Delta-Hedging and Caps/Floors) while other topics have been omitted (Equity Linked Annuities and Compound Options w/One Discrete Dividend).
All exam tips are marked in red!
This the 1st Edition of my MFE study guide, and it may be updated in the future with better content.
Comments and questions may be directed via PM to colby2152 on the Actuarial Outpost.
2nd Edition Notes: Jraven and fractl helped me tweak some little errors in the study guide.
An entirely revamped Spring 08 Edition will be out by March 2008 with more on Brownian Motion, a better understanding but less detailed look at the Greeks, an easier view of convexity, and perpetual options will be removed.

Option Exercise Style
- American: any time

Put-Call Parity
General Formula: Call(K, T) – Put(K, T) = PV(FO,T
– K)
K: strike price
T: exercise time
Put-Call parity usually fails for American-style options.
Currency: C(K, T) – P(K, T) = x0e-r
