Abstract

We consider the problem of evaluating options on a dividend-paying asset by means of a trinomial latticebased model.We propose a suitable construction of the lattice that guarantees the reconnecting property and so keeps the computational cost of the proposed algorithm to a reasonable level. The extensive numerical results obtained show that the model can efficiently compute accurate option prices.
