Short description: Study of mathematical models in finance

Epistemology of finance is a field of study that aims at providing a conceptual framework for the interpretation of mathematical models in finance, in order to determine the epistemological standards according to which financial theory must be assessed.[1] Subjects covered include the study of financial crisis[2] as well as the epistemology of financial reporting.[3]

It is closely related to philosophy and economics.
