INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

JAFEE-Columbia-ISM Conference 2013

JAFEE-Columbia-ISM International Conference on Financial Mathematics, Engineering, and Statistics (as the 10th JAFEE-Columbia Conference on Mathematics of Finance) March 18-19, 2013, ISM Tachikawa Campus, Tokyo, JAPAN

On March 18 and 19, 2013, the Japanese Association of Financial Econometrics and Engineering(JAFEE), Columbia university and the Institute of Statistical Mathematics(ISM) jointly organize a conference on mathematical finance, financial engineering, and statistics.

So far, the JAFEE-Columbia conference has taken place nine times, in Japan and New York by turns. The 10th conference, in Japan's turn, will be held with much cooperation of ISM.

Hence we named the conference "JAFEE-Columbia-ISM International Conference on Financial Mathematics, Engineering, and Statistics."
