Description for Actuarial Theory for Dependent Risks: Measures, Orders and Models
Hardcover. Traditional actuarial risk theory focuses on independence between the different random variables. However in recent years the actuarial profession has recognized that efficient risk management increasingly requires an understanding of the strength of dependence between different risks. This book deals with dependent risks in insurance markets. Num Pages: 458 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: KFFN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 177 x 254 x 30. Weight in Grams: 902.
The increasing complexity of insurance and reinsurance products has seen a growing interest amongst actuaries in the modelling of dependent risks. For efficient risk management, actuaries need to be able to answer fundamental questions such as: Is the correlation structure dangerous? And, if yes, to what extent? Therefore tools to quantify, compare, and model the strength of dependence between different risks are vital. Combining coverage of stochastic order and risk measure theories with the basics of risk management and stochastic dependence, this book provides an essential guide to managing modern financial risk.
