Hi there,

 

Let me briefly introduce myself: my name is Pedro Nassif, I am a 4-year-C++-experienced computer engineer + MBA working at a software provider called SOPHIS (www.sophis.net) in the finance industry. My company sells portfolio and risk management systems for banks and hedge funds. The product has a toolkit framework by which users are able to extend the application via C++ API. I am a consultant on that specific field: among other things, I customize the application via C++, creating new pricing models for instruments in a variety of asset classes, new risk scenarios/stress tests and so on.

 

I read about Quantlib project on the net and in addition to finding it a terrific idea, I feel like being able to contribute to it with my modest experience and expertise.

I am particularly interested in fixed income and credit derivatives domains even though my company is stronger in the equity derivative side.

I quickly went through your to-do list and as a starting point, doing the greeks in the your montecarlo framework tempts me.

 

Please let me know your thoughts,

 

Kind regards,

Pedro Nassif
