# perl-Quant-Framework
A framework of objects upon which to build Financial Quantitative Analysis code

This framework contains modules for different market data that will be needed to price a derivative contract. These market-data modules will need an instance of `Data::Chronicle::Reader` to read data from storage or `Data::Chronicle::Writer` to write data to storage.

Currently below modules are defined:

- **Quant::Framework::CorporateAction**:
Represents the corporate actions data of an underlying from database.

To read actions for a company:
```
my $corp = Quant::Framework::CorporateAction->new(symbol => $symbol,
           chronicle_reader => $reader);
my $actions = $corp->actions;
```
To save actions for a company:
```
my $corp = Quant::Framework::CorporateAction
       ->new(symbol => $symbol,
           chronicle_writer => $writer,
           actions => {
               1234 => {
                   monitor_date => "2014-02-07",
                   type => "ACQUIS",
                   description => "Acquisition",
                   effective_date => "15-Jul-15",
                   flag => "N", #N means new action, U means updated action, D means cancelled action
               }});
$corp->save();
```
