Major research projects
  • 2010 - 2010, N° EAC/47/2009 Feasibility study to examine the potential need for a student lending facility at European level
    Form of participation: member of the research team
    Moneylender: European Commission Directorate-General for Education and Culture
    Further info about research: The general purpose of the project is to make lifelong learning and mobility a reality, by reducing financial barriers. The main tasks are:+ description and evaluation of present practices+ evaluating the Community Added Value (CAV)+ creating new pan-European institution
  • 2012 - 2014, FuturICT.hu – Infocommunication technologies and the society of the future
    Form of participation: member of the research team
    Moneylender:
    Further info about research: Financial systems subprojectInfection analysis and the investigation of cascade effects focus on graph modelling of the interrelated business entities and on evaluating the speed and radius of an infection or the probability of a system collapse. Game theoretical investigations are pursued to measure the fairness of contracts and corresponding risk distributions, and multimedia data mining is applied to reveal the sentiments of a business and discover the correlation and impact of sentiments on the stock prices. In this way, a fast identification of favourable patterns in time series becomes feasible on small time scales, which can give rise to profitable trading where asset prices can follow each other in second and millisecond intervals.
  • 2012 - 2015, Risk allocation in illiquid markets and in case of systemic risk
    Form of participation: leader of the research team
    Moneylender: OTKA
    Further info about research: If a financial enterprise (bank, insurance company, investment fund, etc.) consists of subunits (individuals, products, subportfolios, divisions etc.), not only is it important to measure properly the risk of the main entity, but also to allocate the diversification benefits to the subunits using a proper risk allocation method. The purpose of the project is to analyze risk allocation in illiquid markets and in case of systemic risk, using game theory and simulation.
  • 2011 - 2012, Measuring and allocating risk of illiquid portfolios
    Form of participation: leader of the research team
    Moneylender: MSCI
    Further info about research: In finance risk capital allocation is an important question from both theoretical and practical point of view. How to share risk of a portfolio among its subportfolios? How to reserve capital in order to hedge existing risk and how to assign this to different business units?We use an axiomatic approach to examine risk capital allocation, i.e. we call for fundamental properties of the methods. The starting point of this working paper is the theorem of Csóka and Pintér (2010) who showed that the requirements of Core Compatibility, Equal Treatment Property and Strong Monotonicity are irreconcilable given that risk is quantified by a coherent measure of risk. In this project we examine these requirements using analytical and simulation tools.
