discussion later and solicit your suggestions .

subject : meeting today
hi grant - as anjam has set up a meeting for 9 : 30 your time how about we try
and talk afterwards . originally we said 10 : 00 your
time but i guess that the mg meeting will take longer than half an hour . are
you free around 10 : 30 your time ?
i think some of the communication problems i originally had with anjam have
been resolved ( although it was a difficult situation to interpret ) however , i
would very much like to discuss the situation that i am in concerning my
immediate management .
i have felt that over the last month i have been floundering a little and
have not really been able to turn to anyone in london for direction
concerning var ( although as expected steve has been very helpful to give me
an idea on how to proceed theoretically ) . i do have many of my own ideas
although i think i need to obtain some kind of authority to start any
substantial work . at the moment i feel like i am doing a lot of small things
and am worried that at some stage someone is going to ask the question -
what exactly does she do over there in research ? ? ?
i have talked to rodrigo lamas ( rac model validation new hire ) and he has
helped me to focus on some points i had already made .
as a quick summary i have drawn up a memo which outlines some of the points i
think need to be addressed as far as the var model is concerned ( i could do a
similar memo for the credit reserve model but to start have focused my
comments on market risk ) .
it is a bit rough and ready ( pls excuse any appalling spelling mistakes ! ) but
i think it will help you to see what i have been thinking about since i have
been here .
i do think that the most important issue is that concerning the origin of the
vol / price curves and how they are constructed .
cheers
