Again,rtis the instantaneous interest rate,represents the fixed proportional insur-
ance risk charge,σis the asset’s volatility,ρis the correlation between the asset and
the interest rate,WandZare two independent standard Brownian motions, and the
last part takes into account the jumps.N ̃is a compensated Poisson process with in-
tensityλ, whileY, a r.v. independent from the former processes, represents the price
change after a jump. The jump size is defined byJ=ln(Y).
Let us emphasise here that the non-drift partM,definedbydMt=ρσdWt+
σ
√
1 −ρ^2 dZt+(Y− 1 )dN ̃t, is a martingale in the considered risk-neutral universe.
