September 21 – Visualizing Financial And Economic Data (Using Power BI and R)

Session Abstract –

Firms make massive efforts to collect, clean, aggregate and report on their data but this is only meaningful when people use it to get insight, make better then take action. We’ll show several examples of visualisations of financial and economic data, and discuss how they were built and analyse how effective they are. These examples include market risk chart to compare trading profit & loss (P&L) against measures of risk and regulatory limits and a version of the famous visualisation by Hans Rosling of the health and wealth of nations over 200 years, and also many others.
