London Quant Spring Seminar
Monday 19 and Tuesday 20 May 2008
Co-sponsored by the Chicago Quantitative Alliance
and
Hosted by the Financial Markets Group, London School of Economics
The London Quant Group’s inaugural Spring Seminar will be hosted at the London School of Economics (LSE) in central London on 19th and 20th May 2008 in conjunction with the Chicago Quantitative Alliance.
An exciting and very practical program is presented, designed to be of most interest to those engaged in applying quantitative techniques in today’s markets. The speakers who will present the seminar reflect the direction of London Quant: well-known practitioners, with selective contributions from leading academics.
You will see presentations by Dan di Bartolomeo of Northfields, Sebastian Ceria from Axioma, Jason MacQueen from Alpha Strategies, Ed Fishwick from Blackrock, James Bevan from CCLA, Randy Cohen from Harvard Business School, Christopher Polk of London School of Economics, and Stephen Satchell from Cambridge University.
This program will be complemented by a panel session of prominent practitioners sharing their thoughts on the future direction of quantitative investment techniques in light of recent market turmoil.
And of course lively debate is a distinctive feature of all LQG seminars.
We look forward to welcoming members (£100 plus VAT) and non-members (£500 plus VAT) to what we are certain will be a sensational seminar.
