Einladung zur 4. Fachtagung
Sicherheit in Informationssystemen
SIS 2000
mit Schwerpunkt Electronic Business
Universitaet Zuerich, 5.- 6. Oktober 2000
Veranstalter
============
- Fachgruppe Security der Schweizer Informatiker Gesellschaft
- Arbeitskreis IT-Sicherheit der Oesterreichischen Computer Gesellschaft
- Institut fuer Informatik der Universitaet Zuerich
Zum Thema
=========
Mit der fortschreitenden Kommerzialisierung des Internets gewinnt
auch das Thema Sicherheit von Informationssystemen noch mehr an
Bedeutung. Die Sicherheit der verarbeiteten Informationen dient nicht
mehr nur dazu, Ausfaelle und deren Folgen zu verhindern, sondern stellt
sich vielmehr als "Business Enabler" dar, die viele Geschaeftsideen und
Transaktionen erst ermoeglicht. Sicherheit von Informationssystemen
wird damit zur Basis der Geschaeftstaetigkeit. Voraussetzung fuer
derartige Sicherheit und das Vertrauen der Kunden und Nutzer sind
funktionsfaehige und vertrauenswuerdige Sicherheitsinfrastrukturen.
Vor diesem Hintergrund strebt die Fachtagung SIS 2000 an, die Diskussion
um Electronic Business und Sicherheit anzuregen, neue Aspekte
einzubringen und Loesungswege aufzuzeigen.
Ziel der Fachtagung
===================
ist es, das informationssicherheitsinteressierte Forum, das sich bei
der ersten Fachtagung im Jahre 1994 ebenfalls in Zuerich zusammen-
gefunden hat, zum vierten Mal zu versammeln und auszuweiten. Wissen-
schaftler(innen) und Anwender(innen) aus dem Gebiet der Sicherheit
sollen wiederum zusammenkommen, um den Austausch von Ideen sowie die
weitere Entwicklung dieses Bereiches zu foerdern.
Zielpublikum
============
Auch im Jahre 2000 wendet sich die Veranstaltung sowohl an Wissen-
schaftler(innen), wie auch an Entwickler(innen) und Manager(innen),
welche sich mit der Entwicklung, dem Einsatz oder dem Betrieb von
Informationssystemen befassen.
Zum Inhalt
==========
Das Tagungsprogramm, die Teilnehmergebuehren und ein Anmeldeformular

FINANCIAL OPTIONS RESEARCH CENTRE
WARWICK BUSINESS SCHOOL
UNVERSITY OF WARWICK
Director: Professor Stewart Hodges
13th ANNUAL OPTIONS CONFERENCE
Thursday & Friday 14 - 15 September 2000
The Centre was established to bridge the gap between leading academic
work on financial markets and the needs of practitioners, particularly
those concerned with derivative instruments and risk management.
FORC's research policy is to identify and work on those topics of the
greatest importance at the boundary between academic research on
derivatives and its applications in the market place.
The conference provides a unique forum for leading practitioners and
academics to discuss the latest advances in the pricing and hedging of
derivatives. We are proud of our record of identifying and promoting
key new developments:
This year's programme provides another hand picked selection of the most
exciting new theoretical and empirical research. We are pleased to
present the following speakers
Mark Davis
Stephen Figlewski
Helyette Geman
Stewart Hodges
Farshid Jamshidian
Jean-Philippe Bouchaud
Klaus Sandmann
Andrew Smith
Nassim Taleb
Robert Tompkins
WHERE AND WHEN
The conference will be held in Scarman House, at the University of
Warwick. The Conference will start at 10.00 am on Thursday 14 September
2000 and end at 5.00 pm on Friday 15 September 2000. A bus will meet
participants off the 8.15 am train from Euston, London, arriving at
Coventry Station at 9.30 am on Thursday and take them back to Coventry
station on Friday to catch the 5:37 pm train to Euston, arriving in
London at 6.55 pm.

CONFERENCE PROGRAMME

10.00 On the Market Model of Futures Rates
Futures contracts are in many cases the basic securities of an interest
rate market. In despite of this observation most interest rate models
assume the forward rates as primary elements of the model. The process
of futures prices is therefore endogenous to these models. In addition
hedging strategies are formulated in terms of forward and/or spot
contracts and to a less extent in terms of futures. The modelling
framework used in this presentation is based on the Market Model
approach. Instead of finitely compounded forward rates implied futures
rates are the primary objects. The relationship between these two
modelling assumptions will be discussed and first pricing results will
be derived. Furthermore the relationship between a Market Model
approach and the Heath, Jarrow and Morton approach for continuously
compounded interest rates is investigated. Klaus Sandmann
11.15 Libor Market Model with Semimartingales
This paper extends the Libor market model to general semimartingales.
Appealing simplifications occur for special semimartingales. The case
where forward Libor rates are driven by a Brownian motion and a general
integer-valued random measure is especially highlighted. Basically,
from the existence of a state-price density, the drift of the forward
Libor system is determined in terms of the other two characteristics,
namely the covariation matrix of the continuous part and Levy measure of
the system. Necessary and sufficient conditions are established, and
formulae for forward Libor rates and deflated bond prices are derived in
the actual, forward, and spot-Libor measures. Several other topics,
such as continuous compounding as the limiting case and model
construction, are discussed. Farshid Jamshidian
12.30 Lunch
2.00 Pricing Beyond the Curve
Wherever possible, practitioners seek to price derivatives in a way
which is consistent with an observed yield curve. But some products
extend beyond the observable yield curve. Simplistic extrapolation
methods may be unstable and lead to predictable convexity losses on
revaluation. This paper considers extrapolation methods which arise from
Markovian models and are consistent with absence of arbitrage. We
identify the long spot rate as the leading eigenvalue of an integral
operator, and obtain asymptotic long bond formulas which extend the
result of Dybvig, Ingersoll and Ross. We illustrate the techniques by
pricing various long pension liabilities, expressed in currency terms,
or relative to inflation, or defined by compounded inflation subject to
caps and floors applied annually. Andrew Smith
3.10 Optimal Hedging with Basis Risk
It often happens that options are written on underlying assets that
cannot be traded directly, but where a 'closely related' asset can be
traded. Rather than simply using the traded asset as a proxy for the
option underlying, one should calculate some 'best' hedging strategy.
This is an 'incomplete markets' problem, and we address it using a
utility maximization approach. With exponential utility the optimal
hedging strategy can be computed in reasonably explicit form using the
methods of convex duality. In particular, a perturbation analysis using
ideas of Malliavin calculus gives the modification to the exact
replication strategy that is appropriate when the option underlying and
traded assets are highly, but not perfectly, correlated. Mark Davis
4.20 Afternoon Tea
4.50 The Sampling Properties of Volatility Cones
In this research, we extend the original work on volatility cones by
Burghardt and Lane (1990) to consider of the sampling properties of the
variance of variance (and the standard deviation of volatility) under a
rich class of models that includes stochastic volatility and
conditionally fat-tailed distributions. Because the volatility cone
examines volatility at quite long horizons, the estimation requires the
use of overlapping data. This theory confirms the casual observation
that the estimation of the variance of variance is downward biased when
estimation is done on an overlapping basis. We identify what this bias
is and derive an adjustment factor that approximates an unbiased
estimate of the true variance of variance over various horizons when
overlapping data is used. Robert Tompkins

Building at 7.00 for 7.30 pm.

9.30 Hedging Errors under Misspecified Asset Price Processes
The paper provides a fairly general representation for hedging errors
under misspecified asset price processes. The hedging errors are then
studied in more detail for standard vanilla options, including the
relationship between the size of the hedging errors and the error in
volatility. Two alternative approaches are provided for estimating the
moments of the distribution of hedging errors: binomial tree and kernel
estimation. The analysis has potential implications for understanding
the risks of other, more exotic, contingent claims and of portfolios of
claims. Stewart Hodges/Iliana Anagnou
10.35 Historical Option Pricing: Smile, Skew and Volatility
Correlations
In this seminar, we will present recent advances in option pricing
beyond Black-Scholes, in particular we will discuss the relationship
between smile and skew/kurtosis in the terminal distribution. The main
point is to understand why the smile survives to long maturity. From an
empirical analysis of the statistics of stock prices, we will illustrate
the impact of long-range volatility auto-correalations on kurtosis and
that of price-volatility correlations on skewness. In the light of this
analysis, we will comment on recent multifractal models. Jean-Philippe
Bouchaud/ Marc Potters
11.40 Coffee
12.00 The Fine Structure of Asset Returns: An Empirical Investigation
Rubinstein binomial approximation of the process as well as delivering
unique pricing of derivatives by arbitrage. In order to capture the
recent moves of the Dow Jones and Nasdaq, we propose to introduce jumps
in the trajectories. In contrast with the Continuity of price processes
has served finance as a convenient and powerful assumption, justifying
the Cox-Ross-standard modelling of jumps for asset returns, the jump
component can display finite or infinite variation. Empirical
investigations of time series indicate that index dynamics (e.g., SPX,
RUT) are essentially devoid of a diffusion component while this
component may be present in the dynamics of individual stocks: we
analyse over a five year period time series of 13 stock prices including
IBM, General Electrics and other major companies. This result leads to
the conjecture that the risk-neutral process should be free of a
diffusion component for both indices and individual stocks. Empirical
investigation of options data tends to confirm this conjecture.
Helyette Geman
1.10 Lunch
2.30 Asymmetries in Dynamic Hedging
Discreteness in time and price movements of asset prices induces
significant asymmetries between short and long option portfolios. We
examine the microstructure of order execution and the tracking of the
replicating process. We argue that an operator long options may incur
positive transaction costs. Nassim Taleb
3.35 Afternoon Tea
3.55 Model Risk in Option Pricing
Trading in derivatives involves heavy use of quantitative models for
valuation and risk management. Traders use the available models
extensively, and make a variety of ad hoc adjustments to try to bring
the models into line with the real world. The practical result is
exposure to "model risk". We will report results from an empirical
simulation using historical data for several important markets, that
allow a quantitative assessment impact of model risk. Pricing and
hedging errors due to imperfect models and inaccurate volatility
forecasts create sizable risk exposure. We then go on to consider the
broader issue of how to evaluate the practical contribution of a given
model. The performance of a theoretical model is compared to that of a
"null model" based on minimal information. Stephen Figlewski

EINLADUNG ZUM EINEM GASTVORTRAG
AM INSTITUT FUeR STATISTIK DER WU WIEN
Prof. Milbrodt (Universitaet Koeln)
... und sie bewegt sich doch! -- Ein Blick in
Geschichte und Gegenwart der Personenversicherungsmathematik
Zeit: Mittwoch, 21. Juni, 17 Uhr
Ort: Seminarraum des Instituts fuer Statistik der WU Wien

Ausgang 'Verkehrsamt')
Abstract:
Die Mathematik der Personenversicherung gilt vielfach -- im
Gegensatz zur Schadenversicherungsmathematik, zur mathematischen
Risikotheorie und besonders zur stochastischen Finanzmathematik --
als statisch, von langjaehriger Marktregulierung und behoerdlicher
Aufsicht in vielen Laendern gepraegt, kurz als wissenschaftlich
wenig attraktives Teilgebiet der Versicherungsmathematik. Mit
diesem Vortrag soll gezeigt werden, dass dies ein Vorurteil ist.
Dazu wird der Blick auf die Zeit gelenkt, in der die Personen-
versicherungsmathematik in Bewegung geriet, auf das 17. Jahrhundert,
und insbesondere auf die Geburt und Bluete der modernen Lebens-
versicherung im damaligen absolutistischen Frankreich und in den
Niederlanden. Es wird versucht, anzudeuten, welcher gesellschaft-
liche Bedarf hinter dieser Entwicklung stand und welchen "mathema-
tischen Bedarf" sie nach sich zog.
