Economist, Financial Modeller

$15/hr Starting at $50

I have a master's degree (with six master level Mathematics courses) in Applied Economics from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I am PhD candidate (all but dissertation) in Financial Mathematics at the Middle East Technical University (METU) one of best university in Turkey. I have, also, worked for Undersecretariat of Treasury as Treasury Controller in Turkey for nearly 9 years. I have solid background in economics, econometric modelling (cross-section, panel data, time series etc.) , stochastic calculus, financial and risk modelling such as pricing, market microstructure modelling, credit risk modelling and I have also hands on experience in auditing and international auditing standards. If interview will be held, I am flexible at any time at any place you would need. Please contact me if you need any further information. Along my academic path, I have improved the quantitative side of my economics knowledge as well as theoretical mathematical background. Advanced Macroeconomics and microeconomics, advanced econometrics, multivariate analysis, time series, advanced linear algebra, reel analysis, and topology are some of the courses that I took during the masters program. During my academic studies, I have equipped myself with sound financial modelling, financial analysis and programming skills such as Matlab, R, Stata, and Latex programs. I, therefore, have strong analysis skills necessary to conduct top-notch researches as evidenced by my papers titled Productivity vs Institutions: An Empirical Evidence on Convergence and Spread Calculation via Correlated High/Low Stock Prices. In my first paper, I aimed to find out the relative importance of productivity and institutions on conditional convergence across 36 middle-income countries over 1984-2009 period. In my second paper, which is ongoing with Assoc. Prof. Yeliz Yolcu Okur, we calculate multivariate bid-ask spread estimates via correlated corporate bonds to determine liquidity level of an index in which corporate bonds are trading. To show my competency in the field of Risk Management, I will take Financial Risk Management (FRM) certificate test on May, 2017. To be specific about my professional, I, during the first 3 years of my career, mainly participated many audit engagements such as European Union funds (IPA), World Bank funds, duty losses, and performance audit on government business enterprises upon the advice of the IMF Programme. In order to conform to the national and international legislations/standards in the process of EU and World Bank funds audit, I, with my colleagues, have prepared comprehensive legal and regulatory framework, budget, strategic plans, manuals, and all other key documents by which we can properly manage audit activity of this kind.
