ARPM job opportunity
by Elisa Appolloni 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Dear all, I am reaching out to you because at ARPM (the company for which I work) we are looking to add new resources for our Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management program. Would you mind circulating the message below to interested and qualified candidates? Thank you, Elisa Appolloni *** *The firm* ARPM – Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management <https://www.arpm.co/> is a privately held research institution, directed by Attilio Meucci, based in New York City with virtual offices world-wide. ARPM’s mission is to set and disseminate the standards for advanced quantitative risk management and portfolio management across the financial industry: asset management, banking, and insurance. *The opportunity * ARPM is looking for a new researcher-in-training for a minimum period of 6 months, indefinitely extensible. The successful candidate will review and code practical case studies and theoretical examples in quantitative finance, contributing to the ARPM Lab <https://www.arpm.co/lab/books.php?action=page&id=14>. The successful candidate will work full-time, remotely, constantly communicating via multi-media with the other members of ARPM. The ARPM researcher-in-training position represents a great opportunity for candidates with strong academic background, who wish to apply to real problems in finance the rigorous, research-oriented approach acquired in their schooling. *The progression* ARPM emphasizes the constant intellectual growth of its resources. For the first 6 months the researcher-in- training will be focused on specific projects. At the end of this period (s)he will conduct a presentation on the topics covered. Then, (s)he will start broadening his/her scope, attending the presentations of their peers and seniors, working on broader projects, and acquiring hands-on- knowledge of all the topics of the ARPM Lab <https://www.arpm.co/lab/books.php?action=page&id=14>. The approximate time required to attain the required level of familiarity with the ARPM Lab <https://www.arpm.co/lab/books.php?action=page&id=14> is: two years for a recent master’s graduate; one year for a recent PhD graduate. When ready, the researcher-in-training will be tested on all such topics with an exam. If successful, (s)he will conclude his/her training period, attaining the title of ARPM researcher. The ARPM researcher will then engage in highly quantitative projects with ARPM clients, becoming a profit center. *The candidate* [image: arrow_20]Master’s degree in mathematics, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, data science, quantitative economics. [image: arrow_20]PhD in hard sciences or master’s degree in quantitative finance is a plus. [image: arrow_20]Very strong command of foundational mathematics, including multivariate calculus and linear algebra. [image: arrow_20]Good knowledge of statistics and probability. [image: arrow_20]Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or similar programming languages.

Annual ESOBE 2016 meeting, 27/28 October, Ca' Foscari University, Venice, Italy
by Roberto Casarin VE 22 Oct '16

22 Oct '16

7th ANNUAL EUROPEAN SEMINAR ON BAYESIAN ECONOMETRICS ESOBE 2016 Venice, Italy 27 - 28 October 2016 The workshop is organised by the Department of Economics of the *University Ca’ Foscari of Venice*, and is co-sponsored by the *European Central Bank*, the *Central Bank of Italy*, the *International Association for Applied Econometrics* and *GRETA Associati*. The ESOBE meetings aim at bringing together researchers and professionals interested in the application of Bayesian inference. Ever since the pioneering work of Arnold Zellner, Bayesian econometrics has expanded enormously in areas such as economics, finance, business, and marketing. The computational revolution in simulation techniques is a key ingredient in this expansion and allows the application of Bayesian methods to increasingly complex models and high-dimensional data environments. The ESOBE 2016 conference intends to discuss about research and application in the following *areas*: - Bayesian financial econometrics - Bayesian microeconometrics and program evaluation - Bayesian nonparametric - Shrinkage estimation and variable selection in high dimensions - Computational methods for large datasets - Efficient MCMC and SMC methods for complex models The *keynote speakers *of ESOBE 2016 are: - Christian P. Robert (University Paris Dauphine and University of Warwick) - Ulrich K. Mueller (Princeton University) - Thomas J. Sargent (New York University) The *Scientific Committee* consists of: - Monica Billio (Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) - Fabio Canova (BI Norwegian Business School) - Roberto Casarin (Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) - Sylvia Fruehwirth-Schnatter (Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien) - Sylvia Kaufmann (Study Center Gerzensee) - Gary Koop (Strathclyde Business School) - Francesco Ravazzolo (Free University of Bozen/Bolzano) - Herman K. van Dijk (Erasmus University Rotterdam and VU University Amsterdam) More detailed information available on the Conference *website*: http://virgo.unive.it/esobe2016/index.htm (* Apologies for post-crossing) -- Roberto Casarin University Ca' Foscari, Venice Address: San Giobbe 873/b 30121 Venezia, Italy Phone: +39 041.234.91.49 Fax: +39 041.234.91.76 Web:http://venus.unive.it/r.casarin/
