Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of research in quantitative finance and risk analysis is to enhance the understanding and application of mathematical, statistical and computational techniques to solve complex problems in financial markets. This includes developing models for pricing financial instruments, forecasting market movements, managing financial risks and optimizing investment portfolios. The focus is on quantitatively assessing risks and returns, devising strategies to mitigate potential losses and identifying opportunities for gains in various financial contexts. This research seeks to provide theoretical foundations and practical tools for investors, financial institutions and policymakers to make informed decisions, improve financial stability and contribute to the overall efficiency and resilience of financial systems.
