Welcome to CCFEA
The Centre for Computational Finance and Economic Agents (CCFEA) is an
innovative, interdisciplinary and laboratory based teaching and research Centre
which is a showcase for cutting edge computational and evolutionary methods to
simulate markets with artificially intelligent agents and to design real time
trading and risk management systems. CCFEA hosts advanced workshops and
seminars
by experts in the area of Computational Finance and Economics. The centre
currently has over 50 Masters and PhD students.
The Centre with its innovative
MSc Computational Finance, MSc

MSc Financial Software Engineering,
Integrated PhD Computational Finance and
Integrated PhD Computational Economics - can be considered to be the first
to offer
such a PG curriculum in the UK. CCFEA will remain committed to being a pioneer
at the leading edge of IT and Artificial intelligence based modelling of markets
with operationally relevant features. To this end, in addition to the pursuit of
theoretical aspects of the subject, strong industry links are sought via its
City Associates Board. A
number of CCFEA PhD students have industry internships. CCFEA is currently
"defining the subject area" by its multi agent simulators and modelling work
which is disseminated via the web, research papers, journal articles, books and
invited talks by CCFEA faculty members at high profile academic and industry
workshops and conferences.
