Financial Mathematics
Instructor: Бојан Башкот, PhD, Associate Professor
The goal of the subject is for students to master the basic and derived models of investment and depreciation based on the complex gain considering the deterministic processes. Basic and derived models together with methods are inseparable part of every professional decision-making of business entities, and state and social institutions.
