Abstract

Zusammenfassung Der vorliegende Beitrag befaßt sich mit der Analyse der Handelbarkeit der beiden Volatilitätsindizes VDAX und VDAX-New der Deutsche Börse AG. Zunächst geht es darum, die Berechnungskonzepte beider Indizes vorzustellen und diese in Verbindung mit marktgehandelten derivativen Finanzinstrumenten zu bringen. Anschließend gilt es zu überprüfen, inwiefern der von der Deutsche Börse AG im April 2005 neu eingeführte VDAX-New sich tatsächlich durch eine im Vergleich zu seinem Vorgänger, dem VDAX, verbeßerte Handelbarkeit auszeichnet. Dies wird als ein entscheidendes Motiv für die Einführung des VDAX-New seitens des Indexbetreibers angeführt. Es wird gezeigt, daß eine Verbeßerung hinsichtlich der Handelbarkeit durch die Neueinführung des VDAX-New nicht ohne weiteres gegeben ist.
