Modern Financial Modeling
Concepts and Applications for Actuaries and Other Financial Professionals
Preface
This open-access book enables financial professionals and advanced students to apply the tools and concepts of computational and related sciences to their work.
Throughout these pages, you’ll see how best to represent financial modeling ideas so they remain scalable, intelligible to collaborators, and robust against changing conditions. The book covers fundamentals in programming to advanced topics like parallelization and data visualization, always returning to practical applications in insurance, asset modeling, and beyond.
The goal is straightforward: to empower financial professionals with the knowledge and confidence to manipulate computational tools in ways that reveal ever richer insights into the systems we seek to understand and influence.
