We leverage telematics data on driving behavior variables to assess driver risk and predict future insurance claims in a case study utilising a representative telematics sample. In the study, we aim to categorise drivers according to their driving habits and establish premiums that accurately...

We give a simple explicit algorithm for building multi-factor risk models. It dramatically reduces the number of or altogether eliminates the risk factors for which the factor covariance matrix needs to be computed. This is achieved via a nested "Russian-doll" embedding: the factor covariance...

This paper reviews the two main methods used by government Social Security departments to draw up the so-called actuarial balance of the pay-as-you-go pension system, focusing especially on results, methodology and actuarial issues. The specific models studied are those in the United States,...

In this paper, we focus on the pricing of a particular life insurance contract where the conditional payoff to the policyholder is the maximum of two risky assets. The first one has larger expected returns but is riskier while the second one is less risky but still can earn more than an...

A text aimed at researchers and postgraduates actuarial science, statistics, and actuarial mathematics providing a comprehensive and detailed description of statistical methods for projecting mortality, and an extensive discussion of some important issues concerning the longevity risk in the...

Jan Natolski behandelt die Problematik der Quantifizierung des Risikokapitals aus einer theoretischen Perspektive, die in wertvolle Impulse für die praktische Handhabung mündet. Dies ist ein wichtiger Schritt, da Versicherungsunternehmen durch die Richtlinie Solvency II verpflichtet sind,...
