Introduction to financial mathematics;
It is a new discipline and an important part of "financial high-tech". The research goal is to make use of some advantages in China's mathematics field, deeply analyze the mathematical theory of financial market equilibrium and securities pricing, establish a mathematical model suitable for China's national conditions, write certain computer software, and simulate the theoretical research results;
Conduct econometric analysis and research on the actual data, and provide in-depth technical analysis and consultation for the actual financial sector. The core content is to study the optimal selection theory of portfolio and the asset pricing theory under uncertain random environment. Arbitrage, optimality and equilibrium are the basic ideas of economics and the three basic concepts of financial mathematics.
There are Peking University, Fudan University, Shandong University of Finance and Economics, Shandong University, Zhejiang University, Nankai University, Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, etc. In particular, Shandong University, Shandong University of Finance and Economics and Fudan University are in the leading position in financial mathematics research in the world.
There are few financial mathematicians in China, and the Nobel Prize in Economics has been awarded at least three times to economists who use mathematics as a tool to analyze financial problems. Professor Wang Duo from the Department of Financial Mathematics in Peking University said, "Mathematics will definitely make great contributions to finance" and "Modern finance cannot be separated from mathematics". But unfortunately, the training of relevant talents in China has just started.
Nowadays, compound talents who know both finance and mathematics are quite scarce. Many universities in China have started teaching related to financial mathematics, but the graduates are far from meeting the needs of the whole market.
Although some people thought it was too advanced when the Department of Financial Mathematics was set up, Wang Duo insisted that education should be ahead of industrial development and reserve talents for the market. If we don't pay attention to the cultivation of talents in related fields today, we may be at a disadvantage in international competition.
