The crisis of financial markets have made clear traditional financial engineering approaches alone are not sufficient to manage risks. Risk management is not a trivial matter as the value of financial products is considerable. So, by relying on the right tools you can make the difference.

Forecasting, simulation, and stochastic optimization
Traditional business analytics and risk management techniques should be coupled with forecasting, stochastic optimization and simulation models. This is the way to progress with decisional capabilities while keeping risks at bay.
