This week
New — the “biblical finance” series continues. Three more articles, following Finance According to Solomon: Ecclesiastes, Wisdom and Leviticus (the hedonic treadmill, the first known discounting formula, the first known actuarial table); the Parable of the Talents, Jacob and Joseph (geometric compounding, the Matthew effect, an equity contract, the doubled dream as a Bayesian signal); and Ecclesiasticus (Ben Sira), the most financial of the wisdom books — recovery rates, suretyship, fraud thresholds, bookkeeping. Eighteen more interactive simulations.
Last week
A trilogy on the quantitative finance of persons — the dynamics of accumulation (the process that grows a fortune), the arithmetic of ruin (seven defensive laws, from variance drag to the Cramér–Lundberg theorem), and finance according to Solomon (the Book of Proverbs reread in equations), which opened the biblical series.
Highlights
