“One More Reason” is a charitable initiative by Attilio Meucci.
Learning, teaching and practicing quantitative finance is fun. It is also supposed to pay our bills. “One More Reason”
to do what we do is to help people with more urgent needs than ours.
“One More Reason” started in 2005, when Attilio donated the first royalty check from his book to charity. After that,
Attilio donated the subsequent checks. Those royalties were followed by the proceeds from a series of executive
trainings and seminars on quantitative finance which Attilio offered worldwide in his free time.
