AMS 320 - Introduction to Quantitative Finance


The course introduces the main classes of financial securities, the mathematical tools employed to model their prices, and common models for risk and investment management. Building realistic models relies on having a working knowledge of the empirical properties of financial asset returns which is another focus of the course. R is used as an environment for modeling.
