Derivative Pricing

Nice little piece someone pointed me to at work: Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Missing Ten Pounds. Also seems like as good a time as any to recall An Equation and Its Worlds which is an interesting sociological analysis of the Black Scholes equation from D-squared's site before he joined the Crooked Timber borg.

Old Links - Securities Industry

A few old links I have on the securities / financial industry:

  • via D-squared Digest [pdf] - interesting sociological paper on the Black-Scholes equation. There are a few more essays in a similar vein on this site, but they are a bit samey when you've read one or two. Don't let me put you off though - they are good.
  • Securities Operations Forum - Middleware survey including usage of my former employer's systems.
  • Information Week - Article on the shutdown of GSTPA and the implications
