Abstract
This paper studies a static hedging problem of derivatives when the model risk exists. When the payoff of derivative depends on one asset, Matsumoto (Int J Financ Eng 4(4):1750042, 2017b) solves the problem. We extend his result to derivatives on two assets. Though the optimal solution is more complicated, we show that the problem can be solved numerically in an algebraic way. Further we give some simple numerical examples to show our method works well.
