Only a self-consistent description of halo clustering will allow us to fully exploit the potential of future large-scale structure data. The peak approach is a very promising framework because it exhibits all the complications brought by halo biasing – scale-dependence, non-linearity and stochasticity – and simultaneously accounts for the halo mass function and bias parameters. I will illustrate the predictive power of this approach with numerical simulations, discuss its present limitations and outline directions for future work.
