• Statistical Foundations of Actuarial Learning and its Applications

  This open access book discusses the statistical modeling of insurance problems, a process which comprises data collection, data analysis and statistical model building to forecast insured events that may happen in the future.

• Innovations in Derivatives Markets (Kathrin Glau, et al)

  Pricing and hedging in fixed-income markets and multi-curve interest-rate modeling. Recent developments concerning contingent convertible bonds, the measuring of basis spreads, and the modeling of implied correlations.

• Mathematics of Economics and Business (Frank Werner, et al.)

  For all students who wish to understand current economic and business literature, knowledge of mathematical methods has become a prerequisite. Clear and concise, with precise definitions and theorems, this book covers all the major topics required.

• Financial Mathematics: Concepts and Computational Methods

  This text serves as a primer in financial mathematics with a focus on conceptual understanding of models and problem solving. It includes the mathematical background needed for risk management, such as probability theory, optimization, and the like.
