Lesson plan
Fairmat
Fairmat is a free-of-charge multi-platform software that allows to model financial contracts (e.g. a derivative contract) or projects with many contingencies (e.g. a Real Options model) by decomposing it into basic parts. Complex structures and dependencies are modelled using a graphical interface. Virtually any pay-off function and asset class( from interest rate derivatives to equity-linked notes) can be described using a simple algebraic language. Fairmat is available for Linux, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Ubuntu[https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/fairmat-academic/].
