The expanding range of global competition, coupled with the growing volumes of complex
data in companies after having spent the last decade implementing Enterprise Resource Planning
(ERP), have forced businesses and academics alike to turn to sophisticated technologies for
solutions. Business Intelligence plays ever-increasingly important roles in companies to obtain the
competitive advantages. The marriage between the cutting-edge business intelligence technology
and traditional topics of finance and economics has resulted in the field of Financial Engineering.
Accordingly, financial engineering as a cross-disciplinary field relies on mathematical finance,
intelligent methods and computer simulations to make trading, hedging and investment decisions,
as well as facilitating the risk management of those decisions, and thus strengthening the
competitive capability of companies. To promote the theoretical development and exchange of
Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering, the First and Second International Conference on
Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering (BIFE'2008, BIFE’2009) was held at Changsha
and Beijing in October 28-30, 2008 and July 24-26, 2009.
The main purposes of the Third International Conference on Business Intelligence and
Financial Engineering (BIFE’2010) are to exchange information and ideas on business
intelligence and financial engineering, to promote a higher academic level of business intelligence
and financial engineering, and meantime to provide an international forum for experts from
academia in the field of business intelligence and financial engineering from universities
throughout the world, as well as business practitioners and senior management from industries can
discuss current focus problems, new modeling approaches and future alternative solutions.
