What is Mathematical Finance?
• Mathematical finance (also known as
financial mathematics) is a field of applied
mathematics, concerned with financial
marketsmarkets
• In terms of practice, mathematical finance
also overlaps with the field of computational
or quantitative finance (also known as
financial engineering)

Quantitative Finance
• 1986: birth of quantitative finance (US
investment banks moved to London)
• Rocket Scientists become proprietary traders• Rocket Scientists become proprietary traders
• Birth of Quants: experts in the use of
mathematics and related subjects, particularly
in investment management and stock trading
