The presentations from the R/Finance 2009 conference are now available (well, most of them: I need to give our Bryan Lewis a nudge). Jeff Ryan announced their availability on r-sig-finance today along with this note:
We want to thank everyone who traveled to Chicago to make this happen. With nearly 200 attendees, coming from 8 countries and 20+ states in the US, the conference exceeded all of our expectations. A very big thank you to our presenters for taking the time to join us, UIC's International Center for Futures and Derivatives for hosting the event, and our sponsors REvolution Computing and Microsoft for their support.
We look forward to doing it again in the future. Stay tuned...
R/Finance 2009: Presentations
The quality of these presntations is second to none, this collection is a web resource, which should be mandatory reading in any bank credit risk department or asset manager worldwide. It seems just derivative to blog a ref to this (but maybe it helps on reflection). Had this kind of work been available so easily pre-Credit Crunch then possibly things may have been different. The social contribution of the sponsors and presenters is enormous, in my view, the message should be promulgated!
