量化金融概论

量化金融涵盖了数学、统计知识,计算机编程工具并与现代金融学理论相结合,通过编程设计,将数学模型应用于金融行业的实际问题。

自2000年以来,金融工程和金融数学项目深受国内顶尖学者追捧,毕业生也深受用人单位的青睐,因此金融工程和金融数学研究生项目的申请难度可见一斑,尤其是英国和美国顶尖学府的项目。

Financial Mathematics (数学基础)：

• A field of applied mathematics, concerned with financial markets.

• Derive and extend the mathematical models without necessarily establishing a link to financial theory, taking observed market prices as input and focusing on mathematical consistency is required, not compatibility with economic theory.

• The fundamental theorem of arbitrage-free pricing is one of the key theorems in mathematical finance, while the Black–Schools equation is among st the key results.

• There exist two separate branches of finance that require advanced quantitative techniques: derivatives pricing on the one hand, and risk- and portfolio management on the other.

Computational Finance (计算机工具）：

• A branch of applied computer science that deals with problems in finance.

• Emphasizes numerical methods rather than mathematical proofs.

• Interdisciplinary field between mathematical finance and numerical methods.

• Two major areas are efficient and accurate computation of fair values of financial securities and the modeling of stochastic price series.

Financial Engineering （基于计算机和数学基础的工程实践）：

• Financial engineering is a multidisciplinary field involving financial theory, methods of engineering, tools of mathematics and the practice of programming. It has also been defined as the application of technical methods, especially from mathematical finance and computational finance, in the practice of finance.

• It is sometimes restricted to cover only those originating new financial products and strategies
