“I am greatly honored to receive this prestigious award,” said Dr. Schwartz. “Looking at the list of past recipients makes me feel humble – not only because it includes such brilliant minds in finance research and practice, but also because I am fortunate to count among them many of my own colleagues, friends, role models, and perhaps best of all, one of my students. I thank the IAQF for this inspiring recognition.”
Steven Silberstein, chief technology officer, SunGard, and an IAQF Board Member, said: “As a provider of technology to many of the world’s leading financial services businesses, SunGard takes pride in partnering with the IAQF to select Dr. Schwartz as the 2015 Financial Engineer of the Year. Eduardo is an extraordinary talent. His pioneering work in modeling the uncertainty in pricing and rates is a hallmark of financial engineering. SunGard is privileged to deliver financial technology tools that assist in implementing the creativity of FEOY honorees such as Dr. Schwartz.”
The annual IAQF/SunGard FEOY Award, established in 1993, recognizes individual contributions to the advancement of quantitative finance. Nominations are submitted by a nominating committee of approximately 100 people, consisting of all the IAQF governing boards. They are then reviewed in a two-step process by a selection committee of 25 members, including the IAQF board of directors and senior fellows. This year's selection committee was chaired by Dr. Douglas Breeden, an IAQF senior fellow and 2013 FEOY award winner.
About Eduardo Schwartz
An expert in various dimensions of asset and securities pricing, Dr. Schwartz’s research is rooted in mathematical modeling of uncertainty and an interest in the stochastic evolution of prices and rates. At various times, he has focused on pricing Internet companies, interest rate models, asset allocation issues, evaluating natural resource investments, the stochastic behavior of commodity prices and valuing patent-protected R&D projects. His collected works include more than 100 articles in finance and economic journals, two monographs, and a large number of monograph chapters, conference proceedings and special reports.
Dr. Schwartz is among the first researchers to develop the real options method of pricing investments under uncertainty. He is co-editor, with Lenos Trigeorgis of the University of Cyprus, on the book Real Options and Investment Under Uncertainty (MIT, 2001), a compilation of recent papers and classic research in the field.
He is the winner of a number of awards for both teaching excellence and for the quality of his published work. He has served as associate editor for more than a dozen journals, including the Journal of Finance, Journal of Financial Economics and Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis. He is a former president of the Western Finance Association and the American Finance Association. He is a fellow of the American Finance Association and the Financial Management Association International. He is also a research associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research.
Dr. Schwartz was awarded a Doctor Honoris Causa by the University of Alicante in Spain and by the Copenhagen Business School. He also received the 2000 Graham and Dodd Award for his paper, “Rational Pricing of Internet Companies,” published in the Financial Analysts Journal. He has also been a consultant to governmental agencies, banks, investment banks and industrial corporations. Dr. Schwartz earned a Ph.D in finance and a M.Sc. in Business Administration from the University of British Columbia and a B.Eng. in industrial engineering from the University of Chile.
