Abstract

Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a transformative force in quantitative finance, offering novel tools and techniques for predictive modeling, risk management, and portfolio optimization. By leveraging large datasets and sophisticated algorithms, ML enables financial institutions to uncover complex patterns, generate predictive insights, and enhance decision-making processes. This paper explores the integration of machine learning methodologies into quantitative finance, focusing on applications such as algorithmic trading, credit risk assessment, and asset pricing. Furthermore, the study delves into challenges including overfitting, data sparsity, and model interpretability, proposing solutions to address these hurdles. The synergy between finance and machine learning underscores the potential for enhanced efficiency and innovation, paving the way for a paradigm shift in how financial systems operate.
