■ Message
Message to undergraduate students: Recently, a knowledge of mathematics and statistics is increasingly required even in the liberal arts subjects. Statistics is especially indispensable in the business field. I invite you to develop your ability to use MATLAB and SPSS data analysis tools and learn how to apply them to financial and risk management scenarios. Message to graduate school students: My research interest is in quantitative risk management and my research centers on risk management techniques of financial institutions such as banks, insurance companies, securities firms, and non-banks. I’m also investigating the construction of mathematical-statistics risk models, and the risk management role of a credit information bureau.
