The Research Centre for Applied Mathematics in Economics, Finance and Banking was launched in Hanoi on January 12 by the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics and the Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Bui Van Ga, deputy minister of Education and Training, said the Lab would study and experiment with econometrics and financial mathematics to analyse, forecast and manage economic development.
The lab would help with strategies for increasing socio-economic, and science and technology development by 2020, Ga said. It would also contribute to the National Mathematics Development Plan.
Ngo Bao Chau, scientific director of VIASM, said the lab would use mathematical models to serve government agencies in managing macroeconomics and making financial investment decisions. It would also encourage the country to use mathematical theories more in achieving its economic, financial and banking goals, he said.
