Abstract
A forward equation, which is also called the Dupire formula, is obtained for European call options when the price dynamics of the underlying risky assets are assumed to follow a regime-switching local volatility model. Using a regime-switching version of the adjoint formula, a system of coupled forward equations is derived for the price of the European call over different states of the economy.
