Monte Carlo Methods for Financial Applications

About this programme

Monte Carlo-methods is a collection name for statistical simulation methods. The course aims to give a considerable familiarity for using Monte Carlo methods for the pricing and risk analysis of finansial derivatives. This is achieved through practical use of the methods. Special attention is given to the principles of Monte Carlo-simulation of underlying interest- and price processes, given by stochastic differential equations, different techniques for variance reduction, quasi-Monte Carlo, pricing of European and American options, and calculation of Greeks (sensitivities).
