Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to inform you that we are guest editing the Special Issue entitled “Probability, Statistics and Actuarial Science”, which will be published in Mathematics (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/mathematics, ISSN 2227-7390). This Special Issue is now open to receive submissions of full research articles and comprehensive review papers for peer-review.
Actuarial science is a field of study that incorporates probability and statistical methods to solve problems that appear mainly in insurance industry, pension funds, and financial institutions. The relevant literature indicates that novel theoretical or practical developments in probability theory and statistics have led to a significant progress in actuarial science. The purpose of this Special Issue is to invite researchers to submit high-quality original articles that highlight the connection between recent advances in probability and statistical theory and the development of innovative actuarial methods.
We thus welcome submissions of research articles dealing with probabilistic and statistical aspects that embrace models and applications of interest in actuarial science.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
