This is the third, revised and extended edition of the classical introduction to the mathematics of finance, based on stochastic models in discrete time. In the first part of the book simple one-period models are studied, in the second part the idea of dynamic hedging of conting…
While many financial engineering books are available, the statistical aspects behind the implementation of stochastic models used in the field are often overlooked or restricted to a few well-known cases. Statistical Methods for Financial Engineering guides current and future pr…
"Presenting a unique interface between statistics and financial/actuarial topics, this second edition provides a solid background for students preparing for a career in actuarial science. It explores novel research areas and adds more problems, along with a new solutions section…
"Preface Financial and actuarial modeling is an ever-changing field with an increased reliance on statistical techniques. This is seen in the changing of competency exams, especially at the upper levels, where topics include more statistical concepts and techniques. In the years…
