Abstract

The authors are to be congratulated with this timely and well written overview paper on weighted pricing functionals. In Section 5 the authors analyse Stein-type arguments for assessing pricing functionals. In this discussion we provide an extension for these results, and we also briefly discuss a further property of these pricing functionals.

Keywords: Stein's lemma, bounds, lognormal, pricing
