520 |a ""Monte Carlo simulation and finance" provides financial engineers, researchers, and students with today's most detailed and application-based examination of Monte Carlo modeling techniques. It is filled with valuable insights and methodologies for formulating the problem at hand; setting specific objectives; choosing and implementing the most applicable model; determining parameters; running the simulation; and documenting results and conclusions in light of the simulation results. Monte Carlo Simulation and Finance is an essential reference for anyone, professional or academic, looking to design and implement accurate models for securities pricing and risk management. Further theoretical and mathematical information supporting the concepts discussed throughout this book also appear in an online appendix." --Descripción del editor.
