Cash Equity Risk Premia Portfolio TV5
Option Pricing*

• However, the diversification between the strategies in the Cash Equity Risk Premia Portfolio TV5
allows protection on the Portfolio to be purchased relatively cost-efficiently. E.g. a 2-year 90% option
costs 0.85%, or less than 0.45% per annum, versus backtested returns of —7% per annum on the
index.
■ The table below summarizes the pricing of out-of-the-money put options on the Portfolio.
■ Pricing assumes the protection is purchased at the same time that investment in the index is made.
If purchased separately, prices will be higher to reflect higher hedging costs.
