For option pricing, a mixed model with respect to standard Brownian motion and Poisson fractional process with 'Hurst exponent' being in (1/2,1) is established. We show that although return distributions of stocks are leptokurtic and skewed, have fatter tails than normal distribution and stock return series exhibit long-range dependence, the Black-Scholes formula still holds. We conclude that the skewed and fatter tail distributions as well as long-range dependence in stock return series are not fundamental factors to explain the smile effect of implied volatility in the Black-Scholes formula in some cases.
Keywords:Long-range dependence; Poisson fractional process; Option pricing
