Description

Stochastic simulation is applied to analyse wealth probability distribution of a bank. Existing commercial risk management models use analytic methods while stochastic simulation allows the analysis of non-linear instruments like options. Mathematica showed to enable rapid model development and with combinations of compiled code and symbolic manipulation it showed accepted run time efficiency.
