The Centre of Excellence in Financial Services and the Directed Risk Research Programme will form part of the programme at the sixth international Mathematics in Finance Conference to be held in Skukuza, Kruger National Park from 8 to 12 August 2017.
The main objective of the conference is to bring together academics, practitioners and graduate students who are working in the broad field of financial mathematics, risk analytics and the broader area of business analytics. It is envisaged that these participants will reflect on current open problems and relevant challenges and that they will indicate directions for future research. It is hoped that the interplay between theory and practice as well as issues relating to the dissemination of knowledge and teaching in this field will be discussed.
