Le modèle de volatilité stochastique de Heston a été largement utilisé dans la théorie financière moderne, en particulier pour déterminer le prix des options. Habituellement, ce modèle peut prendre en compte deux régimes différents : le régime de retour rapide à la moyenne et celui de retour lent à la moyenne. Deux solutions différentes ont été données, selon le régime du modèle. Nous démontrons un résultat surprenant : les deux solutions peuvent être approchées par une formule identique. Dans chaque régime, les prédictions de lʼapproximation sont très proches des solutions numériques du modèle de Heston.

The Heston model of stochastic volatility has been widely adopted in modern finance, especially in option pricing. Usually, the model can be classified as being in one of two different regimes: the fast mean-reverting regime and the slow mean-reverting regime. Different approximations are needed for each regime. We show a surprising result: the solution in both regimes can be approximated by an identical expression. The predictions of the approximation are in excellent agreement with the numerical solutions of the Heston model in both regimes.
