Mathematical Methods for Finance: Tools for Asset and Risk Management

Mathematical Methods for Finance contains the mathematical and statistical tools needed in the rapidly growing quantitative finance field. Designed to provide the tools needed to apply finance theory to real-world financial markets, this book offers a wealth of insights and guidance in practical applications. It contains applications that are broader in scope from what is covered in a typical book on mathematical techniques. Most books focus almost exclusively on derivatives pricing, the applications in this book cover not only derivatives and asset pricing but also risk management—including credit risk management—and portfolio management.

  • Includes an overview of the essential math and statistical skills required to succeed in quantitative finance
  • Offers the basic mathematical concepts that apply to the field of quantitative finance, from sets and distances to functions and variables
  • The book also includes information on calculus, matrix algebra, differential equations, stochastic integrals, and much more
