Frankfurt MathFinance Conference

Review This year's MathFinance Conference drew 138 participants from the industry and the academia for two days in Frankfurt. The talks during the two days of the conference covered a broad range of current topics and were presented by internationally known academics and practitioners. The two venues, MesseTurm and Commerzbank Tower provided ample room for the talks and the exhibitors and sponsors. For the first time this year, MathFinance announced a Poster Session and out of the many submitted six were accepted. The Fintegral Prize went to Christian Jonen's poster. The abstracts of the submitted Posters are listed below. Becker | Natcheva-Acar | Müller | Veiga | Jonen | Zargari As last year, the sale of the Cheat Sheets (as Sheets and Posters) led to a substantial collection. Out of this, EUR will be donated to Hamburger SupaKids We would like to thank all our speakers, participants, sponsors, exhibitors and employees for making this event the best quant happening in Germany! Information The conference is intended for practitioners in the areas of trading, quantitative or derivative research and risk and asset management as well as for academics studying or researching in the field of financial mathematics or finance in general. The talks during the two days of the conference cover a broad range of current topics and are presented by internationally known academics and practitioners. There will be enough time for questions and discussions after each talk and additional breaks provide you the opportunity to build networks within the quantitative finance community. The conference will be held in English.
