Statistics for Finance
Statistics for Finance develops studentsa professional skills in statistics with applications in finance. Developed from the authorsa courses at the Technical University of Denmark and Lund University, the text bridges the gap between classical, rigorous treatments of financial mathematics that rarely connect concepts to data and books on econometrics and time series analysis that do not cover specific problems related to option valuation. The book discusses applications of financial derivatives pertaining to risk assessment and elimination. The authors cover various statistical and mathematical techniques, including linear and nonlinear time series analysis, stochastic calculus models, stochastic differential equations, ItAas formula, the BlackaScholes model, the generalized method-of-moments, and the Kalman filter. They explain how these tools are used to price financial derivatives, identify interest rate models, value bonds, estimate parameters, and much more. This textbook will help students understand and manage empirical research in financial engineering. It includes examples of how the statistical tools can be used to improve value-at-risk calculations and other issues. In addition, end-of-chapter exercises develop studentsa financial reasoning skills.Let Pt and Qt denote the restrictions of P and Q on F(t), which implies that knowledge about the probability measures is only based on ... Theorem 8.11 guarantees the existence of a stochastic process [Lt; 0 ac t ac T] defined by dQt Lt = dPt or dQt = LtdPt . ... Each time we observe a price we obtain more information about the probability density function (pdf) of stock prices (by e.g., drawing a histogram).
