1. Introduction
Financial Engineering includes the design, development and implementation of innovative financial instruments and financial means, as well as to provide creative solutions to financial problems.
The concept of financial engineering has two kinds: from the narrow sense and from the broad sense. In a narrow sense, financial engineering mainly refers to the use of advanced mathematics and communication tools, in various existing basic financial products on the basis of different forms of combinational decomposition, to design new financial products to meet customer needs and has specific P/L characters. And generalized financial engineering refers to all the engineering means to solve the financial problems of technology development. It includes not only the financial product design, but also includes all aspects of the pricing of financial products, trading strategy design, financial risk management and so on.
Financial engineering trains modern high-quality compound financial talents with the knowledge of economy, management, law and financial aspects, can develop and design new financial tools and financial instruments, propose creative and personalized schemes to solve the financial problems, conduct financial risk management, corporate finance, investment strategy planning and pricing research of financial products, can engage in multinational corporations and financial institutions for financial management, financial analysis and planning.
2. Core Content
In financial engineering, its core is the development and design to new financial products or business, its essence is to improve efficiency, including:
1). the creation of a new type of financial instrument;
2). development and application of existing tools;
3), based on the existing financial instruments and means, use the combination and decomposition technology to combine new financial products.
3. Operating Procedures
Diagnosis, analysis, development, pricing, delivery, basic process programming
From the project feasibility analysis, to determine the product performance goal and scheme optimization design, product development, pricing model determined simulation test, the application of small batch and feedback correction, until the mass sales, promotion application, each link close order. Most of the innovative new financial products become the instruments of financial engineering to solve other financial related problems, namely, the basic unit of products combination.
4. Financial Efficiency
Financial engineering is the result of market efficiency, and after it is produced, the existence and development of the financial engineering really promote the improvement of financial efficiency.
1) Financial engineering has improved the efficiency of financial institutions.
2) Financial engineering has improved the efficiency of financial markets.
3) Financial engineering has improved the efficiency of financial macro adjustment and control.
