Abstract
Let (Yt)t>0 be a stochastic process on a proper cone K associated with a family of distributions (ℱt)t>0. We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the distribution of 〈Yt, u〉−t for u ∈ K as the parameter t approaches zero. Next, we consider the case that ℱt belongs to an exponential family. Under some conditions, we prove that the limiting distribution of 〈Yt, u〉−t as t → 0+ is a Pareto type law, which is independent of u. Such a process is important for applications in risk management or pricing multivariate options. Hence the obtained results should be important, since by projecting Yt in all directions u ∈ K we give an approximation of the distribution of 〈Yt, u〉 for small values of the corresponding dispersion parameter t. Moreover, we prove that this limit distribution is independent of u. Finally, illustrative examples are provided at the end of this paper.
