The numerical solution of the time fractional Black-Scholes model (TFBSM) of order 0 < alpha < 1 governing European options is studied. Zhang et al. (2016) derived a numerical scheme of second-order in space. We improve their results by constructing a scheme of fourth-order in space while keeping 2 a in time. The solvability, stability and convergence of the proposed numerical scheme are proved using a Fourier analysis. The results are demonstrated on two examples. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
