What is Financial Mathematics?
Over the past two decades, new quantitative techniques have transformed the investment process and the financial industry. Today banks, insurance companies, and securities and investment firms turn to technical innovation to gain competitive advantage. Sophisticated mathematical models are used to support investment decisions, to develop and price new securities, or to manage risk.
Not only financial institutions but also energy companies, utilities and corporations with exposure to exchange rate or commodities risk are hiring quantitatively sophisticated employees. The Master's Degree Program in Financial Mathematics offers a straightforward and efficient way to meet this strong and increasing demand in the professional employment market.
