Stats & ML/AI

A few days ago, I was talking with some friends of mine in the MSc in Mathematical Finance at the University of Warwick. Some of them were telling me how happy they were with the MSc, while others wondered whether they had made the right choice by selecting it or raised critical arguments about several aspects of this MSc and others. In any case, this inspired me to carry out an honest review and comparison of what I consider to be the top MSc programmes in the UK, according

The world of quantitative finance is a kind of mix between mathematics, programming, and corporate finance that’s increasingly attracting Spanish students —both from STEM and non-STEM backgrounds (economics, business, etc.). And it’s no wonder. High salaries, huge intellectual challenges, and a lifestyle that sometimes looks like something out of a Wall Street movie (with a million caveats, of course). I’m in this world myself, so I get every single one of those who want to j

One of the most useful areas in mathematics is probability, due to the constant uncertainty in which we live our lives and its ability to help us extract information about the past, present, and future. This is a fundamental area of specialization for anyone working in statistics, and especially in quantitative finance. I’ve read several books on probability and stochastic processes, but the ones I most highly recommend for truly diving deep and understanding what you're doin
