Browse Hierarchy MTH771P: Foundations of Mathematical Modelling in Finance

Back to EM-MATH-MATH: School of Mathematical Sciences
This module introduces you to all of the fundamental concepts needed for your future studies in financial mathematics. After reviewing some key ideas from probability theory, we give an overview of some of the most important financial instruments, including shares, forward contracts and options. We next explain how derivative securities can be priced using the principle of no arbitrage. Various models for pricing options are then considered in detail, including the discrete-time binomial model and the continuous-time Black-Scholes model.
