Example: quanto forward contract.


e are considering a contract that pays $S_{T}^{\U{a3}}$ units of dollar at time $T$ . The dollar value of the contract is MATH On the $\U{a3}$ -market the risk neutral equation for the stock is MATH We change the numeraire MATH Hence, MATH is a MATH -martingale. Indeed, MATH We have MATH

Hence, MATH Without more assumptions we cannot go further. If the volatilities and rates are deterministic then MATH
