Quant Interview Questions

Quant Interview Questions

  1. Can you derive Black Scholes? There is different starting points for this. You can start from taking a risk neutral expectation of the pay of condition off, or start from a risk neutral portfolio or start with the geometric brownian motion. Either way its important to not just know the mathematics but the principles that relate to the mathematics.
  2. Can you integrate and differentiate on demand? It's not as easy as it sounds, I have been reduced to a wreck several times in an interview when I was terrorised with various questions involving cube roots of numbers whilst trying to remember how to perform a integration operation.
