24th MathFinance
Conference

Thu. 19th & Fri. 20th September 2024

Burg Reichenstein – Trechtingshausen

Thank you for your interest in MathFinance’s Conference! This year’s event is all about bringing the quantitative finance community together. This is an unmissable chance to bridge the gap between investment banking and academic research in mathematical finance.

Our conference will take place in a venue with a special atmosphere. The venue is the Burg Reichenstein. It is located 75km from Frankfurt and can be easily reached by car or train. We’ll be interacting with the leading financial engineers on site, and we’re confident you’ll enjoy networking during the daytime, taking afterwards a relaxing stroll through the vineyards, and enjoying a fantastic dinner with a view to the Rhine river on Thursday evening.

The conference is all about cutting-edge research and brand-new practical applications. This is the ideal opportunity for practitioners in the areas of trading, quantitative or derivative research, risk and asset management, insurance, as well as academics studying or researching in the field of financial mathematics.

We are excited to explore the theme of machine learning in derivatives pricing, crypto exotics markets, explainable machine learning, risk estimation, theta and P&L explain, climate finance, and much more. We are proud to announce that this year we will be welcoming some of the world’s leading experts in quantitative finance.

Venue

The 24th MathFinance Conference on Thursday+Friday  September, 19-20th will be held on Burg Reichenstein, a castle on the cultural world heritage middle Rhine valley, one hour from Frankfurt.

In the scenic environment participants can dive into quant topics without distraction, network with their peers, clients, and friends in a relaxed atmosphere in the middle of vineyards. The castle is owned and run by the Puricelli family and their descendants, hosting us in their ancient walls. An outdoor bowling alley can be used after dinner in the castle garden.

Many participants come earlier or decide to stay for the weekend.
