This book is aimed at students in the MSc in Finance program at HEC Montréal taking the course MATH 60207 Empirical Finance. I make it publicly available for anyone interested in learning Python for finance, but some examples and explanations are tailored to the HEC Montréal context.

Tip

This book is also available as a PDF file. Please note, however, that I will add content throught the semester, so you might want to avoid printing the whole document.

Work in Progress

This book is a work in progress. I are constantly adding new content and refining existing content. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please reach out at vincent.gregoire@hec.ca.

Acknowledgments

I am grateful to my colleague Saad Ali Khan for his invaluable feedback and suggestions on the book, and for providing some the content used in the book.
