Machine Learning-powered Pricing of the Multidimensional Passport Option

Introduced in the late 90s, the passport option gives its holder the right to trade in a market and receive any positive gain in the resulting traded account at maturity. Pricing the option amounts to solving a stochastic control problem that for $d>1$ risky assets remains an open problem. Even in a correlated Black-Scholes (BS) market with $d=2$ risky assets, no optimal trading strategy has been derived in closed form. In this paper, we derive a discrete-time solution for multi-dimensional BS m...
