Financial markets are at the heart of the global economy. The complexity of the phenomena involved requires cutting-edge scientific training to understand some of the most fundamental aspects of modern finance and to act on the markets in a relevant and responsible manner. The objective of the Probability and Finance specialization is therefore to provide students with high-level instruction in the field of mathematical finance. This encompasses all aspects of market finance, with a particular emphasis on:

  • Risk management of derivative products
  • Algorithmic and statistical finance
  • Interest rate modeling
  • Portfolio management
  • Financial regulation
  • Fintech and blockchain
  • Energy markets

The aim of the training is therefore to provide students with the tools to quantitatively formulate and resolve the questions and challenges associated with these finance topics. To achieve this, they will rely in particular on tools such as:
  • advanced stochastic calculus
  • Monte Carlo Methods
  • Stochastic control
  • Statistics of processes
  • Machine Learning
  • Deep Learning
  • Stochastic algorithms and parallel computing methods
  • Numerical analysis
  • Differential game
