Three threads for the same question?NiG density involves bessel functions and for pricing you need numerical integration both are available in GSL or your favorite math/stat software. Now if you can manage to expose these functions to excel you are done.

NIG copula doesn't match your base correlation it is the same thing that a double t copula or a gram charlier copula
