Because MATLAB makes it easy to learn and apply computational methods in quantitative finance and risk management, educators regularly choose it for teaching. Students and researchers can prototype and validate financial models, accelerate them with parallel processing, and visualize the results. Students can use interactive Live Scripts to express their ideas as computational narratives, including for homework and research projects.
Educators have created several teaching tools and resources for use in finance curricula.
