3. Mortgage Mathematics – game theory inference affecting debt markets.
c) Market Research:
  1. Bayesian Analysis using conditional probabilities, to help structure product - launch mechanics.
  2. Entropy–a statistical thermodynamics concept that measures system disorder, is likened to brand-switching behavior of consumers. This is then modeled to predict market-share.
  3. Dynamic Goal Programming model to throw up optimal choices in the media buying function (TV/online delivery).
  4. Services: (Studied as a science). A key area having attained pre-eminence in the national/international trade basket.
