Quantitative analysis

You spend a summer with the mathematicians who price and risk manage Rothesay's pension deals, exotic assets and derivatives. Rothesay is a pensions insurer. A company's pension scheme pays it a lump sum and Rothesay takes on paying those members' pensions for life, so it has to price each deal correctly and manage the risks in the assets it buys to fund them. Quantitative Strategists use mathematical and scientific training to create financial products, advise on transactions, measure risk and spot market opportunities, with a focus on the pricing and risk management of the most complex transactions.

The programme runs for 8 weeks in London, starting July 2027 or sooner if you prefer. It opens with a fundamentals week on Rothesay, your team and the financial services industry, and then mixes on desk work with technical and business skills training off the desk.
