	Master of Science in Finance [Program \| Financial Engineering] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Financial Engineering was born in the city of Chicago.
		Financial engineering is the application of the mathematical tools commonly used in physics and engineering to financial problems, especially the pricing and hedging of derivative instruments.
		Financial engineering is the use of financial instruments such as forwards, futures, swaps, options, and related products to restructure or rearrange cash flows in order to achieve particular financial goals, particularly the management of financial risk.

	What Is Financial Engineering??
		Financial Engineering News (FEN) is a free bimonthly publication for qualified financial professionals covering the news and innovations in the fields of financial engineering and risk management.
		Financial engineering is the application of science-based mathematical models to decisions about saving, investing, borrowing, lending, and managing risk.
		Canonical financial engineering rests upon the science of Brownian motion and other idealizations that, while they capture some of the essential features of uncertainty, are not very accurate descriptions of the characteristic behavior of financial objects.

	International Association of Financial Engineers - Student FAQ
		Financial engineers use the skills they acquire during their degree programs toward a broad selection of careers in finance, including the trading of securities, financial modeling, sales, risk management and portfolio management.
		Moreover as it is increasingly recognized in financial firms that computational and mathematical skills are critical to the success of all organizations, the market for students with financial mathematics degrees continues to broaden.
		Despite the concentration in mathematics and engineering, the important common factor among students is a foundational level of training in mathematics and computer programming and a strong interest in finance and financial markets.

	Financial Engineering
		Financial engineering is, in essence, the phenomenon of product and/or process innovation in the financial industries - the development of new financial instruments and processes that will enhance shareholders', issuers' or intermediaries' wealth.
		The emergence of financial engineering has also been influenced by the realization on Wall Street in the early to mid-1990s that there was a need for a new kind of graduate training.
		As financial engineering attempts to define itself as a field with connections closer to the engineering disciplines than more traditional finance, associations are being set up, and the general engineering community does not quite know what to do.

	David Enke -- Financial Engineering
		Financial engineering is a practical field and a practitioners’ field by its nature.
		A secondary goal is to restructure cash flows for better financial management, such as using a swap to change a variable rate loan to a fixed rate loan for tax purposes and/or better cash flow predictability.
		Since Financial Engineering is quantitative and computational in nature, Financial Engineers are often called "Quants." Initial jobs for Quants often involve number crunching, simulation, and analysis.

	Speech, Ferguson--Financial engineering and financial stability--November 20, 2002
		New financial instruments allow risks to be transferred to those most willing, and presumably most able, to assume and manage them.
		To date the new tools appear to demonstrate that financial engineering can enhance economic efficiency and, at the same time, contribute to financial stability by enabling firms to disperse risk throughout the financial system.
		All these new techniques were made possible by the fact that financial firms have had the latitude to develop them and pursue the ones that appear to be most useful.
