"Versicherungsvertrieb der Zukunft – ein Simulationsmodell"
Abstract:
Die Versicherungswelt befindet sich aufgrund mehrerer gleichzeitig
wirkender Megatrends unter erheblichem Druck – eine bereits sehr lange
andauernde Niedrigzinsphase, FinTech Start-Ups, immer weitreichendere
und handlungsspielraumminimierende regulatorische Anforderungen aber
auch insbesondere die demografisch Entwicklung in Österreich bedrängen
das Versicherungsgeschäft. Eine klare, transparente Quantifizierung
dieser Entwicklungen ist daher unabdingbar für Versicherungsunternehmen,
um als relevanter Marktteilnehmer bestehen zu können.
Das von zeb entwickelte Simulationsmodell ist ein Tool, welches
Versicherungsunternehmen hilft, die Auswirkungen dieser Megatrends auf
das eigene Geschäftsmodell in die Zukunft zu projizieren. Notwendige
Handlungsbedarfe werden dadurch offengelegt und Strategien für eine
zukunftsorientierte Entwicklung können abgeleitet werden.
Den Kern dieses Simulationsmodells stellt die Projektion der
demografischen Entwicklung des Kundenstamms dar: Entlang der
demografischen Entwicklung von Deutschland und Österreich wird die
demografische Entwicklung des Kundenstamms einer Versicherung simuliert.
Die Simulation der Bevölkerung bzw. des Kundenstamms kann durch
Variation von Parametern für Migration, Geburtenraten, Kundengewinnund
Kundenabgangsquoten adjustiert werden. Darüber hinaus werden zur
Modellierung der Geschäftsstruktur auch die Produktnutzung,
Prämieneinnahmen sowie Provisionen in die Simulation des
Versicherungsvertriebs miteinbezogen. Die Auswertung kann dabei
individuell pro Vertriebsweg aber auch aggregiert über das
Gesamtunternehmen erfolgen.

"From optimal rebalancing to information geometry"
Abstract:
What is the optimal frequency to rebalance a portfolio? For the class of
functionally generated portfolios in stochastic portfolio theory, we
show that the answer is given in terms of a "dualistic" Pythagorean
theorem. Along the way, we establish fascinating connections with
optimal transport and information geometry - the differential geometry
of probability distributions. A key role is played by the concept of
L-divergence which generalizes the diversification return (aka excess
growth rate) of a portfolio. Our results extend the classical
information geometry of Bregman divergence developed by Amari and
others. This is joint work with Soumik Pal.
