Moshe Milevsky[1] is an Associate Professor in Finance at the Schulich School of Business at York University, Canada. He graduated with a B.A. in Mathematics and Physics from Yeshiva University in 1990 and worked as an actuarial intern at TIAA-CREF in New York. In 1996, he was awarded a Ph.D in Business Finance from York University where he has been teaching since.[2]

His area of expertise is in mathematical financial economics. He has done extensive research on exotic option pricing, quantitative personal financial planning (focusing on investment strategies for retiring individuals), insurance derivatives, and alternative paradigms for risk quantification and measurement of long-term financial market investment returns.[3]

He is also the Executive Director of the Individual Finance and Insurance Decisions Centre (IFID), a non-profit corporation dedicated to generating advanced research at the intersection of wealth management, personal finance, and insurance.[4] For his contributions to the Fields Institute and to the Canadian mathematical community, Moshe was inducted as a Fields Institute Fellow in 2002.[5]

Moshe Milevsky is the author of several books, including the popular Are You a Stock or a Bond, which helps a person evaluate all the opportunities and risks in a person’s life, and the more advanced The Calculus of Retirement Income, which summarizes much of the research that Milevsky has done on quantitative personal financial planning.[6]
