The event
Hosted by the Management School's Accounting and Finance Group, the 'Liverpool Workshop in Option Markets' brings together a number of internationally recognised academics to present their latest papers and discuss the latest research developments in this area.
Option Markets have attracted the attention of investors in recent years due to low-cost electronic trading, improved pricing models and online analysis tools, as well as for offering unique advantages, including portfolio protection and additional income when used prudently.
As the popularity of these derivatives increases, this one-day workshops offers researchers and PhD students specialised in financial markets, a fantastic opportunity to learn about cutting-edge methodologies and network with like-minded individuals.
