The QuantLib Project is a community-driven initiative aimed at providing a comprehensive, free, and open-source software framework for quantitative finance. Started in 2000 by Ferdinando Ametrano, the library provides tools that are critical for modeling, trading, and risk-managing complex financial instruments. It is widely used by financial institutions, software vendors, and academics globally for tasks involving derivatives pricing, portfolio analysis, and risk management, serving as a foundational component in many proprietary and commercial financial applications.
