Description

This book puts numerical methods in action for the purpose of solving practical problems in quantitative finance. The first part develops a toolkit in numerical methods for finance (Monte Carlo, PDE, Stochastic Optimization, Copula, Econometrics). The second part proposes twenty self-contained cases covering model simulation, asset pricing and hedging, risk management, statistical estimation and model calibration. Each case develops a detailed solution to a concrete problem arising in applied financial management and guides the user towards a computer implementation. The appendices contain "crash courses" in VBA and Matlab programming languages. A companion CD provides ready-to-run codes (VBA, MATLAB). The book originates from class notes and case studies developed within a course on numerical methods in finance held by the authors at Bocconi University.
