Mailto:ptufano@hbs.edu
Our new Finance Course Abstracting Journal (FEN-Course) is
devoted to the rapid, worldwide dissemination of innovative
courses addressing subject areas covered by the Financial
Economics Network (FEN) journals. Innovative courses
include courses that: cover new and emerging fields, bring
the findings of cutting-edge research into the classroom,
utilize unique materials or educational approaches, and/or
address standard subject matter in a particularly effective
way. Subject areas include, but are not limited to:
Corporate Finance and Organizations, Banking and Financial
Institutions, Capital Markets, International Finance,
Emerging Markets, Derivatives, and Real Estate. Courses
designed for undergraduates, graduate students and
executives are all welcomed, as are courses adopting a
variety of educational formats. The latter includes
lecture-based courses, case-based courses, project courses,
and courses based on other approaches to learning, e.g.
simulated trading in financial markets.
In disseminating innovative course materials, we are
committed to upholding standards of collegiality,
referencing and documentation equal to those that are
standard in our research efforts. It is not common in the
profession to reference the source of ideas in teaching
materials in the same fashion that we reference the source
of ideas that are developed in journal articles and books.
Yet ideas from courses and teaching materials strongly
influence the work of scholars, students and managers. We
strongly encourage the acknowledgment and appropriate
citation of such work. We invite you, fellow teachers and
scholars, to make use of the material offered in FEN-Course
in your own courses, teaching. If you do so, we request
that you reference the material as you would any piece of
scholarly work.
Submissions to FEN-COURSE can be sent to the editors, Karen
Hopper Wruck kwruck(a)hbs.edu, or Peter Tufano ptufano(a)hbs.edu
As part of a submission package we would like to receive the
following:
1) A course description of up to 500 words.
2) A document, such as a class by class reading list with
full references for as many of the materials as possible,
including cases, articles, exercises, problem sets,
assignment questions, etc. The more complete and detailed
your document, the more useful it will be to colleagues. To
reduce the administrative burden on your office, we strongly
recommend that you make this document available for
distribution in electronic form.
3) JEL codes representing the appropriate topic areas
covered by your course. These codes are available from
http://www.econlit.org/elclasjn.htm#d2head
4) A brief description of the type of course (required,
elective, undergraduate, graduate, executive), number of
times the course has been offered, enrollment, and history
of its development, if these are not included in the course
abstract or accompanying document.
Any questions regarding FEN-COURSE can be directly addressed
to the editors kwruck(a)hbs.edu or ptufano(a)hbs.edu

FOR THE LATEST AND MOST COMPLETE INFORMATION ON THIS CALL, SEE:
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/ftpub/call.htm
MOTIVATION
Recent technological developments, the rapid growth of the World Wide Web,
and maturing corporate intranet structures have led to the rapid
dissemination of huge amounts of financial news and information (newspaper
articles, financial services information, corporate publications, stock
exchange news, peer-reviewed financial journal articles, etc.). However,
cost and time constraints prohibit an exhaustive search through or download
of all potentially relevant financial news and information available on the
Internet, for later analysis and processing. One possible solution is to
distribute information sampling over a large number of locations in order
to classify local data, construct a pool of relevant information, and
generate useful rules that might be further analyzed or processed at a
central location. This requires intelligent and dynamic domain decomposition,
as well as flexible software agents for symbolic information processing.
SCOPE
All papers submitted must focus on the data mining of financial news and
information, and on applications of interest to financial analysis or
decision-making, investing or trading. Of particular interest are algorithms
and techniques that both incorporate computational intelligence and are
unique or especially relevant to financial tasks. Authors are invited to
submit papers on the design of automated, scalable, distributed knowledge
discovery systems for financial information mining on the Internet, to address
issues related to:
- search strategies
- knowledge representation
- reasoning mechanisms
- learning algorithms
Suggested topics include but are not limited to the following:
- intelligent software agent structures
- sampling strategies for mining the World Wide Web
- distributed search algorithms for mining financial news
- collaborative and heuristic search methods
- statistical text mining
- incremental knowledge discovery methods
- financial news and information quality
- dynamic domain decomposition
- expert and decision-based strategies
- knowledge representation issues
- knowledge-base design and segmentation
- communications and query issues
- Knowledge Interchange Format (KIF)
- Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language (KQML)
- semantic nets and frames
- combining natural language processing and statistical text mining
- algorithms for organizing, filtering and summarizing textual information
- state space methods and issues
- novel learning and reasoning algorithms

Computational Finance (CF99)
January 6, 1999 (Tutorials)
January 7 - 8 (Conference)
The sixth international conference Computational Finance (CF99)
will be held at NYU's Leonard N. Stern School of Business. CF99
is sponsored by the New York University Salomon Center, the
Center for Research on Information Systems and the Department
of Statistics and Operations Research.
Computational Finance has emerged as a genuinely cross-
disciplinary research meeting. CF99 is the sixth in a series of
conferences that have been sponsored by the California
Institute of Technology and the London Business School. In the
past, this conference was called Neural Networks in the Capital
Markets (NNCM). The expanding set of computational tools has
moved this meeting from its original emphasis on neural network
techniques to a broad spectrum of different methodologies.
With several hundred attendees, this fully refereed conference
has become an international forum where original research in
advanced computational applications in finance is presented and
discussed. CF99 brings together decision-makers and strategists
from the financial industries, with academics from finance,
statistics, economics, information systems and other
disciplines. In the last few years, the conference has seen
papers covering many different computational techniques
including: statistical machine learning, Monte Carlo
simulation, data mining, knowledge discovery, bootstrapping,
genetic algorithms, nonparametric methods, information theory
and fuzzy logic. Applications in many different areas are
welcome, including but not limited to: risk management, asset
allocation, dynamic trading and hedging strategies,
forecasting, numerical solutions of derivative PDEs, exotic
options and trading cost control.
Studies may cover any major international financial market
including equity, foreign exchange, bond, commodity and
derivatives. The conference emphasizes in-depth analysis and
comparative evaluation with established approaches.
CF99 will have two distinguished keynote speakers,
Gifford Fong, Chairman, and CEO of Gifford Fong Associates, and
David E. Shaw, PhD, Chairman and CEO of D. E. Shaw & Co., Inc.
The conference also features several invited speakers sharing
their expertise from both the academic and applied perspectives.
CF99 begins with a full day of tutorials designed to inform the
diverse group of participants on a selection of the latest tools
and research results. This year's tutorials feature the following speakers:
Professor Stephen Figlewski, Finance Department, Stern School of Business,
New York University
Professor Halbert White, Economics Department, University of California,
San Diego
Professor David A. Hsieh, Finance Department, Fuqua School of Business,
Duke University
Professor Benjamin van Roy, Engineering Economic Systems Department,

Im Rahmen des Seminars "Finanzmathematik in der Praxis"
spricht Herr Dr. Stefan Pichler (TU Wien) ueber
"Risikomanagement von Kapitalmarktfloatern"
Abstract:
Kapitalmarktfloater sind Anleihen mit variabler Verzinsung, bei denen
die Hoehe des Kupons nicht wie ueblich von einem fristenkongruenten
Geldmarktzinssatz (Geldmarktfloater) sondern von einem Kapitalmarktzinssatz
(in Oesterreich meist eine Sekundaermarktrendite) mit laengerer Laufzeit
abhaengt. Im Gegensatz zu Geldmarktfloatern existiert fuer Kapitalmarktfloater
keine einfache Duplikationsstrategie. Im Zuge der Umsetzung der
Kapitaladaequanzrichtlinie stellt sich fuer das Risikomanagement in Banken die
Frage nach einem praktikablen Bewertungsmodell fuer diese Instrumente.
Ausgehend von Jamshidian (1997) wird ein Verfahren vorgestellt, das zumindest
fuer Kapitalmarktfloater, deren Referenzzinssatz eine Par Coupon Yield
(Swap Rate, Constant Maturity Rate) ist, ein Mapping auf die betreffenden
Diskontierungsfaktoren ermoeglicht. Fuer Instrumente, deren Verzinsung
von einer Sekundaermarktrendite abhaengt, kann allerdings gezeigt werden, dass
eine Abbildung von Instrumenten allein auf die Diskontierungsfaktoren nicht
ausreichend ist. Zur Loesung dieser Problematik wird ein empirisch motivierter
Ansatz vorgestellt, der eine praktikable aber auch finanzwirtschaftlich
konsistente Einbindung dieser Instrumente in das Risikomanagementsystem
erlaubt.
Im unmittelbaren Anschluss an den Vortrag wird Herr Dr. Pichler fortsetzen
mit der
Vorstellung des CCEFM Doctoral Program in Finance:
CCEFM (Center for Central European Financial Markets) ist eine Initiative der
Uni Wien, der WU Wien, der TU Wien und der Wiener Boerse AG mit dem Ziel,
fuer den Standort Wien ein universitaetsuebergreifendes Doktoratsstudium
im Bereich Finanzierung zu koordinieren sowie den Ausbildungsstand - orientiert
an den anglo-amerikanischen Raum - anzuheben. Ziel des Programms ist es, eine
qualitativ hochwertige, international konkurrenzfaehige Ausbildung anzubieten.
Weitere Anreize fuer Teilnehmer sind die Koordination des Lehrprogramms sowie
Kontakte zu Professoren von anderen (insbesondere amerikanischen)
Universitaeten.
Ueber den erfolgreichen Abschluss des Programms, das bereits im Herbst 1998
starten wird, wird ein eigenes CCEFM-Zertifikat ausgestellt.
