20.03.2001 - Christoph Krischanitz:
Die Schadenreserve aus aktuarieller Sicht
Abstract:
Im Zuge der internationalen Rechnungslegung nach IAS bzw. US-GAAP kommt
der "Best Estimate"-Bewertung der ausstehenden Schadenreserve eine
steigende Bedeutung zu. In den letzten 40 Jahren wurden viele Verfahren
entwickelt, die alle auf dem "Schadendreieck" beruhen. Das Schadendreieck
ist eine Dreiecksmatrix, Zeilen und Spalten werden gebildet durch die
Anordnung des Schadenaufwandes nach Schadenanfallsjahr und Schaden-
abwicklungsjahr. Durch die Abwicklung der Schäden in vergangenen Jahren
sollen Rückschlüsse auf die fehlenden Aufwandsbeträge der Schadenmatrix
gezogen werden. Dieser Vortrag soll die gängigsten Verfahren vorstellen
das Dreieck zu einem Quadrat zu vervollständigen, sie vergleichen und auf
eine solide wahrscheinlichkeitstheoretische Basis stellen. Damit werden
auch Aussagen über Schätzgenauigkeit und Fehlerabschätzung möglich.

Dear Victor,
please post this on the fam-list,
thank you

================================================================
We are looking for more participants and speakers for the
seminar 105.021 SE AKVFM Mathematical Finance 2.
The aim of the seminar is to discuss recent or classical work
on mathematical finance beyond the introductory Black-Scholes
and Cox-Ross-Rubinstein framework.
This seminar is especially recomended for students doing a
diploma or doctoral thesis. The requirement for the seminar is
a basic knowledge of finance (say our course "Advanced
Mathematics of Finance" or Hull's book etc. A basic knowledge
of probability might be helpful.
Participants should prepare and give one or two talks in
English language.
The topic is negotiable (!!!), my suggestions for this semester
are
Philippe Artzner, Freddy Delbaen, Jean-Marc Eber and David
Heath: Coherent Measures of Risk, Math. Finance 9 (1999),
no. 3, 203-228
already a "classic" by now. If somebody wants to get (and do)
an additional deeper mathematical view of this topic she can
try
Freddy Delbaen: Coherent Risk Measures on General Probability
Spaces http://www.math.ethz.ch/~delbaen/
Very enjoyable to read, full of surprises and very profound is
Embrechts, P., McNeil, A., Straumann, D.: Correlation and
dependency in risk management: properties and pitfalls
http://www.math.ethz.ch/~baltes/ftp/papers.html
A short, non-technical version appeard in May 1999 in the risk
magazine:
Embrechts, P., McNeil, A., Straumann, D.: Correlation:
Pitfalls and alternatives RISK Magazine, May 1999.
Another suggestion is the work of Fred Espen Benth on
Portfolio optimization in non Gaussian markets Several papers
and preprints can be found at http://www.math.uio.no/~fredb/
Copies of the papers are provided.
Anybody interested should contact immediately

Attention!
On thursday, 8.3. our Seminar will exceptionally take place - as usual
at 16:30 - but at the Lecture hall of the Schroedinger Institute

The reason is the previous talk of Anatole Vershik which some of the
participants of our Seminar might want to hear:
08.03.2001 - Anatole Vershik (Steklov Institute of Mathematics,
St.Petersburg): Lebesgue measure in infinite dimensional space
and properties of Levy's gamma process
(Time: 15.30-16.30; Location: ESI lecture hall)
So, FAM Seminar Time Table for this week is the following:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOMORROW:
PV Schachermayer (Tuesday 16:30-18:00)
Location: TU FH, Turm A, 6. Stock, SR 107
06.03.2001 - Christopher Summer: Optimal solutions to utility
maximization and to the dual problem (the paper by Marco Frittelli)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
THURSDAY:
SE Schachermayer (Thursday 16:30-18:00)
Location: Lecture hall of the Schroedinger Institute (Boltzmanngasse 9)
08.03.2001 - Irene Klein: No-arbitrage criteria for financial markets
with efficient friction (the paper by Kabanov-Rasonyi-Stricker)
