Les + de la formation
The job of Quant / Strat (quantitative analyst) is constantly changing due to the post-crisis regulatory upheavals, technological changes (GPU), the unceasing mathematical and algorithmic advances (Machine Learning).
This effervescence is reflected on the one hand by new requirements in terms of calculation and risk control at the level of companies themselves, local or foreign regulatory authorities and the other by the arrival of new technological tools (parallelism), algorithmics (machine learning), mathematics (forward simulation, multilevel methods, etc.) and new models (rough volatility).
The purpose of the training is to allow both a (re) leveling of the participants but also to give them an overview of this constantly evolving situation as well as the tools to support it or even to impulse it.
Classes are held on fridays and saturdays.
Courses are held in French but the trainers are bilingual.
