Diversity of Financial Risk 2024 is the 8th incarnation of the annual workshop on quantitative finance organized by the Department of Probability Theory and Statistics of Eötvös University and ELTE RiskLab. The workshop aims to bring together a dedicated group of academic researchers and quant practitioners from the industry to discuss and build a better understanding of current challenges and novel approaches in quantitative finance. 

This year the Workshop focuses on advances in mathematical models designed to tackle the complex behaviour of financial markets, derivative products, trading strategies, optimal portfolios and risk management, and their practical usage in sell side and buy side applications. Specific talks on different modelling problems will be accompanied by a panel discussion with distinguished guests on the more general topic: what makes a model particularly successful in an industry setup?
