TALK TITLE
How banks make money using Mathematics and Technology: A perspective from the trading floor
ABSTRACT
We will showcase some personal experiences in trading floors of financial institutions related to revenue generation through innovation in mathematical finance and technology.
The emphasis will be on practical, real life situations and examples, where an additional intellectual edge can translate into real advantage over competitors and profit.
We will explain how banks and hedge funds invest vast amounts in numerate personnel and advanced technology to maximize their financial success.
