Abstract

Eugene R. Black, President of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, stated that the Bank, as it enters its tenth year, is going forward in the same spirit of exploration and innovation that has marked its life up to now. Against the always pressing problem of how to raise production and standards of living, we are moving in new, and we hope, constructive ways. The Bank established the Economic Development Institute, a staff college for senior officials in less developed countries. The Bank is now collecting information on credit transactions to better assess risk. The fact that our times are complex, and that the responsibilities of government have grown, should not obscure the truth that economic progress can continue with full momentum only if individuals and groups of individuals have the greatest possible opportunity to make their own successes, and for that matter, to make their own mistakes. The elevation of living standards has properly become a task of first importance to which governments throughout the world are applying their energies and for which they are mobilizing their resources. It will be a sad circumstance if they should neglect to exploit to the full that most productive attribute of the human race, the spirit of individual enterprise.

Abstract

One of the best languages for the development of financial engineering and instrument pricing applications is C++. This book has several features that allow developers to write robust, flexible and extensible software systems. The book is an ANSI/ISO standard, fully object-oriented and interfaces with many third-party applications. It has support for templates and generic programming, massive reusability using templates (?write once?) and support for legacy C applications. In this book, author Daniel J. Duffy brings C++ to the next level by applying it to the design and implementation of cla

Abstract

This volume provides the definitive treatment of fortune's formula or the Kelly capital growth criterion as it is often called. The strategy is to maximize long run wealth of the investor by maximizing the period by period expected utility of wealth with a logarithmic utility function. Mathematical theorems show that only the log utility function maximizes asymptotic long run wealth and minimizes the expected time to arbitrary large goals. In general, the strategy is risky in the short term but as the number of bets increase, the Kelly bettor's wealth tends to be much larger than those with es
