Prof. Dr. Eva Lütkebohmert-Holtz
Head of the Department of Quantitative Finance Eva Lütkebohmert-Holtz is Professor for Quantitative Finance at the University of Freiburg. She studied mathematics at the Universities of Bonn and Toronto and received her PhD (Dr. rer. nat.) in mathematics from the University of Bonn in 2004. From 2005-2006, she worked as research analyst for the Deutsche Bundesbank in the Department for Banking Supervision. From 2006-2009, she was Juniorprofessor at the Faculty for Economics and Social Sciences at the University of Bonn. Afterwards she switched to the University of Freiburg as head of the junior research group „Financial Mathematics: Pricing of Risks in Incomplete Markets“. In 2013, she was appointed Professor for Quantitatitve Finance at the University of Freiburg.
| | © Christian Hanner | Her research covers both the theoretical and empirical analysis of financial markets and lies at the intersection of economics, mathematics und statistics. Eva Lütkebohmert-Holtz has published several articles on the management and modelling of financial risks, in particular credit and liquidity risk, on interest rate markets, as well as on the valuation and hedging of financial derivatives. In the academic year 2018/2019 Eva Lütkebohmert-Holtz was internal senior fellow at the Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies (FRIAS) where she worked on a project about the "Instability of Interbank markets." In Juni/Juli 2019 Eva Lütkebohmert-Holtz has spend a research stay as academic visitor at the Institute for Mathematics and at the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the University of Oxford.
