Summary
Han Oostdijk is a retired quantitative consultant and mathematician with over three decades of experience applying mathematical and statistical methods to financial risk modelling, particularly Operational Risk and Basel II/AMA validation. He has deep hands-on expertise in APL2, SAS, SQL/DB2, MATLAB, Excel/VBA and has converted and optimized complex C++ and SAS implementations into MATLAB with parallel and database toolboxes. Han has advised major banks on stress testing, ALM and Solvency II projects and built production-ready risk models and prepayment models for mortgages. His background as an MVS/XA systems programmer and longtime APL2 practitioner gives him uncommon low-level systems insight alongside high-level statistical modelling skills. Active on GitHub and with an ORCID for scholarly work, he continues to explore scientific and parallel computing, optimization and reproducible quantitative research. Based in Amstelveen, he combines academic training in mathematics with practical, auditable implementations for regulatory and consultancy contexts.
