Overview

Quantitative finance is an interdisciplinary research area related to finance, mathematics, and statistics, and is relevant to both the private and public financial sectors. Two areas of finance require advanced quantitative techniques: a) asset pricing, and b) risk and portfolio management. To make further progress in these two areas, our program will focus on the following three themes:

  • Stochastic Control in Finance
  • Fintech and Machine Learning
  • Asset Pricing and Risk Management

Up to ten students will be offered financial support. The deadline for application is closed.
