Learning objectives

The goal of the lecture is to present the theoretical foundations and the models employed by financial institutions to manage different sources of financial risk. A particular focus will be put on numerical methods (Monte Carlo simulations) and their implementation using modern IT-Tools (Java, Eclipse).

Prerequisites and basic notions

The course does not have any strict prerequisite. However, for an adequate understanding of the material covered, it is useful to possess a good knowledge of the basic concepts from mathematical analysis (limits, derivatives, integrals) and statistics (random variables, probability distributions, estimators, hypothesis tests).

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The course consists of two modules. The final mark of each module is expressed on a scale from 0 to 30. To pass the exam one needs to get at least 18 in each module. In this case, the overall mark is obtained by taking the weighted average of the two marks. The weight of the two modules reflects the respective teaching load and is given by 25% and 75%.
