The Quant Collective is a collection of projects I have worked/ am working on around the topics of Quantitative Finance. I always believed that knowledge sharing is the best way towards mastery, and this ideal motivated the creation of this page (and the associated github).
A small note about myself: I established my career around derivatives and positioned myself as a front office derivatives expert, with practical experience in equity and commodities. As a front office derivatives specialist, my expertise ranges across futures trading, market microstructure, option pricing and hedging, and counterparty credit risk. I have experience in real option valuation, in the context of pricing tradable physical optionality and real option in project finance.
