Damir Filipovic (born 1970) is Swiss mathematician specialized in quantitative finance. He hold the Swissquote Chair in Quantitative Finance and is the director of the Swiss Finance Institute at EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne).[1][2][3]

Career

Filipovic studied mathematics at ETH Zurich and earned his Master's degree in 1995. He then joined Freddy Delbaen as PhD student and graduated in 2000 with thesis on Research "Consistency problems for HJM interest rate models".[4] Following he joined as a visiting research fellow the Vienna University of Technology,[5] Stanford University and Princeton University. In 2001, he briefly became Adjunct Assistant Professor at Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Columbia University, but then joined the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich as postdoctoral research fellow. In 2002, he went to as a tenure-track assistant professor to work at the Department of Operations Research and Financial Engineering at Princeton University.[6]. As scientific consultant for solvency testing and risk analysis in insurance he joined in 2003 the Swiss Federal Office of Private Insurance (BPV), and simultaneously he joined as senior researcher the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich. He became full professor on the Chair of Financial and Insurance Mathematics at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich in 2007. In 2007, he was appointed as director of the Vienna Institute of Finance, and full professor at the University of Vienna.[7]. Since 2010 he has been the Swissquote Chair in Quantitative Finance and director of the Swiss Finance Institute at EPFL.[1][2][3]

Research

Filipovic's research group focuses on quantitative finance by drawing in an interdisciplinary manner on fields such as finance, mathematics, economics, and computational finance. It aims at both advancement of theoretical understanding of financial engineering, and its implementation in the financial industry and governmental policies.[8] Their research target fields such as quantitative finance,[9][10][11] quantitative risk management,[12][13][14] kernel methods for machine learning,[15][16] affine and polynomial processes,[17][18][19] and stochastic models.[20]

Distinctions

Filipovic is the 2016 recipient of the Louis Bachelier Prize awarded by the London Mathematical Society, the Natixis Foundation for Quantitative Research and the Société de Mathématiques Appliquées et Industrielles.[21], In 2010, he was awarded the EGRIE Prize at the World Risk and Insurance Economics Congress.[22]

He has been associate editors at academic journals such as Mathematics and Financial Economics, Stochastics, Asia-Pacific Financial Markets, and Mathematical Finance,[23] and Finance and Stochastics.[24]

He is board member of the Board of Directors of the Swiss Life Group.[25]
