Description
In this e-Learning course, we review the concepts of risk sensitivities, Delta, Gamma, and Vega, presented in the Excel version of the course, and expand on them by using Python to measure risk, and create powerful data visualizations to help us manage risk in rate-sensitive portfolios. We use Python to calculate risk sensitivities for different portfolios of bonds, swaps, and swaptions, and apply them to simulate portfolio profit or loss, as a result of changes in interest rates and option volatility.
No coding experience needed. Downloadable Python code is included so you can dive right in, as we walk you through course exercises that develop your practical skills, in market risk measurement and management.
