Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Insurance Mathematics: Two Lectures Delivered Before the Students in the School of Commerce of the University of Wisconsin, the Fall Term of 1901 It is most interesting to study the growth and evolution of any branch of science and to observe how it sprang from some other branch of science, and what things had to be known as a preparation for the dawning of the new learning. It is a far cry, perhaps, from actuarial science to the decimal system of notation, and yet, had it not been for the invention of that system it may well be doubted whether arithmetic would ever have reached the stage which renders mathematical problems that would otherwise be difficult of operation, simple and easy. Addition, which is now so simple, albeit so laborious a matter, was exceedingly difficult under the old systems of notation. A student may readily form some conception of the difficulties if he will range a number of Roman numerals side by side, or one under the other - one arrangement is about as convenient as the other - and proceed to add. Multiplication, which is continued addition, was even harder. It follows that operations which must be performed upon a very large scale, in order that actuaries may do their tasks, were then almost impossible upon anything but a limited scale. Almost equally absurd it may at first seem to declare that the new science could not have come into existence until after algebra was discovered; but it will be seen to be perfectly reasonable to say this when it is taken into account that actuarial science is merely a department of algebra, and that all its operations are algebraic. The form which all its formulas take is that of equations, and they are evolved from other equations by purely algebraic processes. Algebra and decimal notation were both introduced into Europe by the Arabs through the Moorish schools of Spain and Africa, in the thirteenth century.

Download or read book Collected Works I written by Harald Cramér and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of Harald Cramer's extensive work on number theory, probability, mathematical statistics and insurance mathematics. Many of these are not easily found in their original sources nowadays, for instance his pioneering work on risk theory published in the Skandia Insurance Company's jubilee volumes in 1930 and 1955. Despite their age, these eminent examples of Cramer's expository style remain highly readable. Cramer was one of the "fathers" of modern mathematical statistics. His famous book on the subject is still an important reference. His statistical papers included here were seminal to the subsequent development of the subject. The collection includes a complete bibliography of Cramer's work.

Download or read book Risk Analysis in Finance and Insurance written by Alexander Melnikov and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2004-06-02 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, financial and insurance risks were separate subjects most often analyzed using qualitative methods. The development of quantitative methods based on stochastic analysis is an important achievement of modern financial mathematics, one that can naturally be extended and applied in actuarial mathematics. Risk Analysis in Finance and Insurance offers the first comprehensive and accessible introduction to the ideas, methods, and probabilistic models that have transformed risk management into a quantitative science and led to unified methods for analyzing insurance and finance risks. The author's approach is based on a methodology for estimating the present value of future payments given current financial, insurance, and other information, which leads to proper, practical definitions of the price of a financial contract, the premium for an insurance policy, and the reserve of an insurance company. Self-contained and full of exercises and worked examples, Risk Analysis in Finance and Insurance serves equally well as a text for courses in financial and actuarial mathematics and as a valuable reference for financial analysts and actuaries. Ancillary electronic materials will be available for download from the publisher's Web site.

This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quantitative modeling of complex systems of interacting risks is a fairly recent development in the financial and insurance industries. Over the past decades, there has been tremendous innovation and development in the actuarial field. In addition to undertaking mortality and longevity risks in traditional life and annuity products, insurers face unprecedented financial risks since the introduction of equity-linking insurance in 1960s. As the industry moves into the new territory of managing many intertwined financial and insurance risks, non-traditional problems and challenges arise, presenting great opportunities for technology development. Today's computational power and technology make it possible for the life insurance industry to develop highly sophisticated models, which were impossible just a decade ago. Nonetheless, as more industrial practices and regulations move towards dependence on stochastic models, the demand for computational power continues to grow. While the industry continues to rely heavily on hardware innovations, trying to make brute force methods faster and more palatable, we are approaching a crossroads about how to proceed. An Introduction to Computational Risk Management of Equity-Linked Insurance provides a resource for students and entry-level professionals to understand the fundamentals of industrial modeling practice, but also to give a glimpse of software methodologies for modeling and computational efficiency. Features Provides a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to quantitative risk management of equity-linked insurance with exercises and programming samples Includes a collection of mathematical formulations of risk management problems presenting opportunities and challenges to applied mathematicians Summarizes state-of-arts computational techniques for risk management professionals Bridges the gap between the latest developments in finance and actuarial literature and the practice of risk management for investment-combined life insurance Gives a comprehensive review of both Monte Carlo simulation methods and non-simulation numerical methods Runhuan Feng is an Associate Professor of Mathematics and the Director of Actuarial Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries and a Chartered Enterprise Risk Analyst. He is a Helen Corley Petit Professorial Scholar and the State Farm Companies Foundation Scholar in Actuarial Science. Runhuan received a Ph.D. degree in Actuarial Science from the University of Waterloo, Canada. Prior to joining Illinois, he held a tenure-track position at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, where he was named a Research Fellow. Runhuan received numerous grants and research contracts from the Actuarial Foundation and the Society of Actuaries in the past. He has published a series of papers on top-tier actuarial and applied probability journals on stochastic analytic approaches in risk theory and quantitative risk management of equity-linked insurance. Over the recent years, he has dedicated his efforts to developing computational methods for managing market innovations in areas of investment combined insurance and retirement planning.
