In this study, neural networks are investigated as nonparametric estimation tools for hedging options. For this purpose, a network called HEDGENET is designed, the output of which is a hedging strategy. The network is trained to minimize the hedging error rather than the pricing error. Applied to the time horizon and spot prices of the Euro Stoxx 50 and S&P 500 option indices, the network is able to significantly reduce the mean squared error of the Black-Scholes hedge. However, a similar advantage can be achieved through simple linear regressions accounting for the effect of leverage
