Welcome to this free courseware module ‘Mathematical modelling of financial markets’!

This module is taken from the OUHK course MATH S390 Quantitative Models for Financial Risk, a five-credit, Higher level course offered by the School of Science & Technology of the OUHK. This course is about the use of mathematics to solve real-life applications. You will learn how to represent real world financial problems through various types of mathematical methods (e.g. Black–Scholes models).

MATH S390 is mainly presented in printed format and comprises 5 study units. Each unit contains study content, self-tests, etc for students’ self-learning. This module retains most of these elements, so you can have a taste of what an OUHK course is like. Please note that no credits can be earned on completion of this module. If you would like to pursue it further, you are welcome to enrol in MATH S390 Quantitative Models for Financial Risk.

This module will take you about 3 hours to complete, including the time for completing the activities and self-tests (but not including the time for assigned readings).

Good luck, and enjoy your study!
