Maxeler applications in financial engineering ALEKSANDAR RAKIĆEVIĆ prof. BRATISLAV PETROVIĆ PhD student Menthor University of Belgrade Faculty of Organizational Sciences (FON)
MAXELER FINANCIAL APPLICATIONS • Interest rate curve fitting • Pricing/valuation • Model calibration • Scenario analysis • Risk analysis • Portfolio optimization • High frequency trading 2 / 7
THESE PROBLEMS ARE COMPUTATIONALLY EXPENSIVE • Some intensive calculations: • expected values for trees based models with thousands of steps • correlation and covariance matrices for thousands of assets • multi variate Monte Carlo simulations with multiple payoffs • runing models for high frequency trading 3 / 7
Pricing CDOs 4 / 7
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF MAXELER APPLICATIONS • Example: Acceleration of complex credit derivatives calculations at JP Morgan Code transformation: 898 → 3696 (growth factor 4) Speedup: 220x (overnight → several min) Power usage: - 6% • American Finance Technology Award (2011) 6 / 7
