More about the course

Special attention will be given to quantitative approaches that form the basis for modeling financial products, for measuring risk and for setting up predictive models.  Example applications are risk management, the pricing of insurance products, trading strategies, or the prediction of bankruptcies and other variables that are key to financial decision making. Many of the offered courses focus on such applications, and current issues such as climate risk or cryptocurrencies will be covered. Students will also gain familiarity with the information systems Refinitiv Datastream and Refinitiv Eikon, which are available in the faculty’s trading room.
