Abstract

In this article, the Normal Inverse Gaussian Distribution model (NIGDM) is extended to a new Extended Normal Inverse Gaussian Distribution (ENIGDM) and its derivate models find many applications. The author proposes a new model ENIGDM, which generalizes the models of normal inverse Gaussian distribution. This class of ENIGDM is to approximate an unknown risk-neutral density. The paper discusses different properties of the ENIGDM. In particular, the applicability of this new general model with five parameters is well justified by more results which represent mixtures of inverse Gaussian distributions. Then a discussion is begun of the potential of the normal inverse Gaussian distribution and Lévy’s process for modeling and analyzing statistical data, with a particular reference to extensive sets of observations and applications in wide varieties.
