Professor

Catherine Bruneau (U-P1)

 

This course focuses on the traditional models that are currently adopted to specify the fair prices of financial assets under no arbitrage condition. The range of assets is from the single stock or bond to complex derivatives. Different frameworks are examined depending on the characterization of time and/or uncertainty. The question of pricing crypto-assets is also addressed. The course will be developed in tight relation to Financial Econometrics and Quantitative methods in finance courses.

Course prerequisites: Course on financial markets, Knowledges in Probability, Statistics, Econometry.
