---------------------------------------- Fabrizio Lillo Scuola Normale Superiore Piazza dei Cavalieri 7 56126 Pisa ITALY New website: fabriziolillo.wordpress.com phone: +39 050509159 - SEMINARIO DI FINANZA QUANTITATIVA *Venerdì 19 maggio 2017* ore 11:00 *Scuola Normale Superiore* Pisa Aula Mancini *Claude Martini * *(**Zeliade e INRIA**)* Terrà un seminario dal titolo: *“**Martingale measures with prespecified marginals: extremal points, cycles and perturbations**”* *Abstract:* *The characterization of the extremal points of the set of measures with two given marginals goes back to works by Denny, Letac and Mukerjee in the 70s-80s. The set of martingale measures with given marginals attracted recently a lot of people in the context of robust finance, where the model is known only through the prices of vanilla options conveyed by the market. We investigate in detail, in the discrete space case, the properties of extremal points of this set, and exhibit several classes of interest, altogether with a useful necessary conditions for a point to be extremal. We also discuss a candidate analogous of the no-cycle property in the non martingale case and its relations to perturbations. We illustrate our results in low cardinality situations (joint work with Luciano Campi, LSE).* Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Seminario S. Menozzi @ UniTo
by Cristina Zucca 11 May '17

11 May '17

A tutti gli interessati. Martedì 16 maggio alle ore 15:30 in aula 5 presso il Dipartimento di Matematica "G. Peano" dell'Università degli Studi di Torino, Via Carlo Alberto 10, Il Prof. S. Menozzi (Evry) terrà un seminario dal titolo: "Ergodic approximation of invariant measures for diffusions " Abstract: We present non-asymptotic estimates for the approximation of invariant measures for diffusion processes. We consider an Euler scheme with decreasing step where the occupation measure converges towards the invariant measure. The final estimates can be seen as a non-asymptotic extension of central limit type theorems obtained by Lamberton and Pages (Bernolulli 2002). Our approach combines probabilistic techniques (increments of martingales) and analytic arguments (Schauder's estimates for the associated Poisson process). -- Dr. Cristina Zucca Department of Mathematics University of Torino Via Carlo Alberto 10 10123 Torino, Italy tel: +39-011-6702850 fax: +39-011-6702878

Con preghiera di diffusione tra tutti i possibili interessati, Cordialmente, Rosaria Simone -------------------------------------------------------------------- We are glad to announce the Summer School on “Latent Markov Models with Applications” Saturday- Wednesday, 16th-20th September, 2017 University of Milano-Bicocca, Milano “The course aims at developing your expertise and skills on the main basic theory of the latent Markov models for the analysis of longitudinal data. A deep insight of the underlying assumptions, which are based on stochastic processes will be provided. Basic and advanced parameterizations to formulate latent Markov models will be explained also when explanatory variables are available. The inferential procedures will be explained in detail both from a classical and Bayesian inferential perspective. Models for drawing inference from longitudinal and multilevel data will be considered with reference also to incomplete data. During the course, many case studies and applications will be presented by using some suitable R libraries.” Scientific Committee: Francesco Bartolucci - University of Perugia Alessio Farcomeni - Sapienza University of Rome Silvia Pandolfi - University of Perugia Fulvia Pennoni - University of Milano-Bicocca Application deadline: July 16th Application deadline for scholarship: May 31st Program and further information: UNIMIB website: *http://www.summerschoolbicocca.com/017-11-markov-models-course.php* <http://www.summerschoolbicocca.com/017-11-markov-models-course.php> Italian Statistical Society website: http://new.sis-statistica.org/ wp-content/uploads/2017/03/brochure_Milano_2017_-EN_last_v1.pdf ------------------------------ Rosaria Simone Ricercatore in Statistica Dipartimento di Scienze Politiche Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II

Seminario Prof. Idris Kharroubi (Paris Dauphine) al Politecnico di Milano
by Fulvia Confortola 08 May '17

08 May '17

Con preghiera di diffusione tra tutti i possibili interessati, scusandomi per invii multipli. Cordialmente, Fulvia Confortola -------------- Si avvisa che il giorno giovedì 11 maggio 2017 alle ore 11:15 nella Sala Maestrale, Tender, piano -1 del Dipartimento di Matematica (Edificio La Nave) del Politecnico di Milano, Via Bonardi 9, Milano, si terrà il seguente seminario Relatore: Prof. Idris Kharroubi, Università Paris Dauphine. Titolo: Information uncertainty related to marked random times and optimal investment Abstract: We study an optimal investment problem under default risk where related information such as loss or recovery at default is considered as an exogenous random mark added at default time. Two types of agents who have different levels of information are considered. We first make precise the insider's information flow by using the theory of enlargement of filtrations and then obtain explicit logarithmic utility maximization results to compare optimal wealth for the insider and the ordinary agent. This talk is based on a joint work with Ying Jiao (Université Lyon I).

Fwd: International Conference in Venice - CALL FOR PAPERS - DEADLINE May 31, 2017
by Monica BILLIO 08 May '17

08 May '17

16th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE CREDIT 2017 *INTEREST RATES, GROWTH and REGULATION *Venice, Italy 28-29 September 2017 *GRETA Associati *(Venice, Italy), the *European Investment Fund* (Luxembourg) and *Intesa Sanpaolo* (Milan, Italy) are co-sponsors of a Conference to be held in Venice on September 28-29, 2017. The objective of the Conference is to bring together academics, practitioners and PhD students working in the area of risk management. The conference will provide an opportunity for participants engaged in research at the forefront of this area to discuss both the causes and implications of recent events in financial markets and may, in turn, suggest fruitful directions for future research. The Conference, organised under the auspices of the *Department of Economics of the University Ca' Foscari of Venice*, *ABI - Italian Banking Association *and *European Investment Bank*, is the *sixteenth* of a series dedicated to various aspects of credit risk. Since 2007, the financial crisis has triggered deep changes of various kinds. Central banks have experimented new monetary policies (low interest rates, quantitative easing, forward guidance...). The banking industry has had to develop new asset management strategies and to adjust its credit allocation practices in order to cope with a new environment characterized, in particular, by a prolonged period of very low risk-free returns. Alternatives and complements to commercial banking have continued their progress. Meanwhile, regulatory frameworks have been reshaped all around the world, with the introduction of new requirements or guidelines. All these changes have called for a substantial amount of research to improve the knowledge of the mechanisms at play during the crisis, to design adapted policy tools and to provide a better description of the new economic and financial environment. The organizers encourage submissions of papers on any topic within the overall theme of the conference and in the following areas in particular: - Low interest rates and asset management: emergence of alternative asset classes; changes in banks asset management, repositioning towards wealth management services. - Low interest rates and econometric modelling: Zero Lower Bound; lift off; unconventional monetary policy; default risk; contagion and systemic risk. - Interest rates and alternative financing: venture capital; credit risk in p2p lending/crowdfunding, is there adverse selection? the financing of SMEs; impact on the real economy. - New regulation environment: impact of Basel 4; internal models versus standardized approach; international harmonization; impact of TLAC (total loss absorbent capacity) and IFRS9. The Scientific Committee for the Conference consists of: *Alain Monfort* (CREST-Paris, Programme Chair) *Monica Billio* (Ca' Foscari University of Venice) *Francesca Campolongo* (EU-JRC Unit 'Financial and Economic Analysis') *Helmut Kraemer-Eis* (Head EIF's Research & Market Analysis) *Jan Peter Krahnen* (SAFE - Goethe University) *Steven Ongena* (University of Zurich, SFI & CEPR) *Jean-Paul Renne* (University of Lausanne) *Fulvio Pegoraro* (Bank of France) *Bernd Schwaab* (European Central Bank) Local Organisers: *Davide Alfonsi* (Intesa Sanpaolo), *Monica Billio* (Ca' Foscari University of Venice & GRETA), *Andrea Giacomelli* (Knowshape & GRETA), *Pier Luigi Gilibert* (European Investment Fund) and *Domenico Sartore* (Ca' Foscari University of Venice & GRETA) CALL FOR PAPERS The final program will include both submitted and invited papers. Acceptances received so far from invited speakers include *Thomas Philippon *(New York University), *Manju Puri* (Duke University) and *Jean-Paul Renne* (University of Lausanne). The Conference will also feature a panel discussion on researchers' and practitioners' views of the major outstanding problems.
