Making a Market for Acts of God: The Practice of Risk Trading in the Global Reinsurance Industry - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Reinsurance is a financial market that trades in the risk of unpredictable and devastating disasters - such as Hurricane Katrina, the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, and the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre. Such disasters are increasing in both frequency and severity, with the cost of their losses mounting rapidly. Reinsurance insures insurance companies, enabling them to pay claims arising from these losses. It is thus a market mechanism that is a critical part of the social and economic safety net, helping to pick up the pieces after disasters. Yet, how is the risk of such disasters calculated and traded in a global market? This book brings to life the reinsurance market through vivid real-life tales that draw from an ethnographic, "fly-on-the-wall" study of the global reinsurance industry over three annual cycles. The authors shadowed underwriters around the world as they traded risks through multiple disasters. For instance, this book takes readers into the desperate hours of pricing Japanese risks during March 2011, while the devastating aftermath of the Tohoku earthquake is unfolding. To show how the market works, the book offers authentic tales gathered from observations of reinsurers in Bermuda, Lloyd's of London, Continental Europe and SE Asia as they evaluate, price and compete for different risks as part of their everyday practice. Understanding how this market for disasters works has never been more critical given the impact of climate change and increased global connectivity, where a flood in one country can trigger losses to supply chains around the world. The authors develop a novel concept of how global markets work, which advances scholarship and challenges current thinking about how financial markets trade in intangible assets such as risk. This book will be useful to readers interested in markets for disasters, insurance, reinsurance and financial markets, and academics interested in the practice of financial markets specifically or the practice of strategy and organizations generally.

Quantitative trading - algorithms, analytics, data, models, optimization - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This chapter gives an overview and some historical background of quantita- tive trading, the title of this book. It begins with a historical review of the evolution of the trading infrastructure, from verbal communication and hand signaling in an exchange to electronic platforms, in Section 1.1. It then gives in Section 1.2 an introduction to quantitative trading strategies and in par- ticular, the time-scales associated with different classes of strategies. In this connection, we give in Section 1.3 a brief historical account of the paradigm shift from the “efficient market hypothesis” (EMH) to arbitrage opportuni- ties via quantitative trading. In Section 1.4, we describe “quant funds” that use these quantitative trading strategies, and also the closely related mutual funds and hedge funds. An overview of the algorithms, analytics, data, models, and optimization methods — the subtitle of this book — used in quantita- tive trading is given in Section 1.5. Section 1.6 discusses the interdisciplinary background of the book and the anticipated diversity of its target audience. It also provides suggestions on how the book can be used by different groups of readers. Supplements and problems are given in Section 1.7.
Quantitative trading with r: understanding mathematical and computational tools from a ... quant's perspective - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: The primary tools that quants and traders rely on to perform their daily activi- ties include intuition, data, computer hardware, computer software, mathematics, and finance. They utilize these tools in ingenious ways as a means to an end. The end, of course, is the generation of consistent profits in the financial markets. Many traders have done well for themselves by relying on intuition alone. But intuition alone, on average, will not yield superior results. A tool chest of sorts is required in order to maximize the quant/trader’s chances of producing consistent and favor- able outcomes. A programming language is one such tool. In this book, we will learn how to wield the R programming language for the purposes of manipulating data, performing math operations, automating workflows, displaying informative visualizations, creating reproducible results, and doing lots of other cool stuff. The R language R [88] is an open-source scripting language that has become very popular among statisticians, data science practitioners, and academics over the years. It is a func- tional programming language by nature, but it also supports the object oriented and imperative programming paradigms. 1 In some sense, R is both a program- ming language as well as a development framework. The framework has support for some advanced graphing capabilities and provides access to multiple state-of-the- art statistical packages. The language itself supports conditional statements, loops, functions, classes, and most of the other constructs with which VBA and C++ users are familiar. The plethora of contributed packages by third parties, a solid user-base, and a strong open-source community are some other key strengths of R. The R system can be divided into two conceptual parts:
