Financial Engineering in the Complete Markets (Inżynieria finansowa na rynkach zupełnych)

An aim of considerations is to show that the linear algebra lectured at all technical universities and in the majority of economic schools, offers very adequate tools for presentation of the most important notions in the field of financial engineering. It provides the opportunity to clearly explain in what the basic research problems in financial engineering consist as well as shows the ways of resolution thereof. The matter is here, first of all, with safeguarding by companies and, generally speaking, investors against the risk in capital markets by way of formation of synthetic instruments replicating the desired (absent in the capital market) securities. It is extremely important for big firms such as e.g. companies from WIG 30, in which incompetent hedging against the risk of fall in prices of commodities (e.g. copper) or, what's worse, lack of hedge leads to great losses (KGHM)
