Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to inform you that we are guest editing a Special Issue entitled “Statistics, Stochastic Modelling and Quantitative Risk Management for Insurance”, which will be published in Risks (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/risks, ISSN 2227-9091). This Special Issue is now open to receive submissions of full research articles and comprehensive review papers for peer-review.
Quantitative risk management (QRM) is one of the most challenging tasks for financial institutions, such as banks, insurance companies, etc. As financial products are becoming more complex, new risk management methods have to be adjusted to these new products. QRM incorporates a wide range of techniques from different disciplines (including statistics, mathematics, and finance) to address issues related to the operation and the regulation of financial institutions.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the interplay between statistical and probabilistic aspects, on the one hand, and the risk management process on the other. We thus welcome submissions of high-quality articles that present recent developments or introduce new theoretical (or practical) advances in the areas of statistics, stochastic modelling and quantitative risk management with applications related to the insurance industry.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Catastrophe risk management
- Computational methods for insurance pricing
- Cyber insurance and risk management
- Econometric models for risk management
- Estimation and evaluation of risk management models
- Extreme value theory in risk management
- Insurance risk management
- Longevity/mortality modelling and risk management
- Loss distributions and their applications in insurance risk management
- Solvency for financial institutions and risk aggregation
This Special Issue is a continuation of the previous successful Special Issue “Statistics and Quantitative Risk Management for Insurance”.
