QuantFi<\/a>, in collaboration with QURECA<\/a> are pleased to announce the launch of their first online course, \u201cIntroduction to Quantitative and Computational Finance\u201d.<\/p>\n\n

Quantitative Finance<\/strong> – the use of mathematical models and extremely large datasets to analyse financial markets and securities. Common examples include the pricing of derivative securities such as options, and risk management, especially as it relates to portfolio management applications. Professionals who work in this field are often referred to as \u201cQuants.\u201d <\/em>The Corporate Finance Institute <\/em>[1].<\/p>\n\n

As a concept, quantitative finance is relatively new, born of the first financial computing revolution and driven by applied mathematics PHD\u2019s trained in the early 70s, it has now expanded to include a multitude of disciplines, all of which seek use to data to guide investors to make profitable decisions.<\/p>\n\n

Providing significant advantages when applied to portfolio management and investment strategy, the demand for quantitative analysts continues to grow; a trend is set to continue as the use of computation in the finance industry increases \u2013 amplified by the transformative potential of quantum computing methods.<\/p>\n\n

These positive benefits have fuelled \u2018Quantitative Funds\u2019, investment firms where financial decisions are determined entirely by numerical methods rather than by human judgement [2]. Investment decisions informed by quantitative financial models now play an important part in the investment strategies of firms such as D.E. Shaw group and AQR Capital Management who have US$50billion [3] and US$140billion [4] of assets under management respectively. Now is the best time to master a new skill and enter the world of Quantitative Finance. A career that is highly stimulating and situated at the cutting edge.<\/p>\n\n
