A Simple Linear Programming Approach to Gain, Loss and Aset Pricing

• Bernardo and Ledoit (2000) develop a very appealing framework to compute pricing bounds based on what they call gain-loss ratio. Their method has many advantages and very interesting properties and so far one important drawback: the complexity of the numerical computation of the pricing bounds. In this note we provide a simple procedure for their computation which only entails solving a linear optimization program.
