Financial mathematics is the application of mathematical models to the solution of problems in the financial industry. It draws upon tools from mathematical sciences, business and economic theory.

Financial institutions, insurance companies, corporate treasuries and major corporations require analysts with high skills in financial mathematics.

Their responsibilities include aiding in interest rate modeling, evaluating investments, wealth valuation, decision making and developing programs that use derivatives to reduce exposure to market fluctuations and risk.

Mathematical analysis has brought efficiency and rigor to financial markets and the investment process, and is quickly becoming a critical component of regulatory concerns.
