金融数学理学硕士

数学金融是应用数学的一个领域，在其中，纯数学的核心部分经常采用概念和技术来解决世界金融机构日常业务中出现的各种重要的实际问题。Brunel金融数学理学硕士的目的是引导学生精通现代金融理论基础的复杂数学思想以及相关的市场结构和惯例，重点是：金融资产动态建模在股票市场和固定收益市场中，期权和其他衍生工具的定价和对冲是金融风险的量化和管理。
Financial mathematics builds on the application of advanced concepts in modern probability theory to enable market professionals to tackle and systematically resolve a huge range of issues in the areas of pricing, hedging, risk management, and market regulation. On this course you’ll put theory into practice by developing your numerical and computational skills to implement financial models. These are the skills you’ll need to work for a financial institution. The course has an emphasis on- the modelling of the dynamics of financial assets, both in equity markets and in fixed-income markets, the pricing and hedging of options and other derivatives, the quantification and management of financial risk.<br><br>Careers and your future<br>You’ll be qualified to pursue a job in a number of different areas of financial modelling and risk management in the financial services industry, with employment prospects in banks, asset management firms, hedge funds, pension funds, insurance and re-insurance companies, exchanges, corporate and sovereign treasuries, financial consultants, financial software developers, financial regulators, financial publishing houses, and companies specialising in the analysis and distribution of financial information and data. There is also a demand in financial institutions for well qualified mathematically literate graduates with higher degrees for positions in the trading, structuring and marketing of financial products.
