Dear Colleagues,
It is our great pleasure to announce the new journal of the Belgian Actuarial Society (KVBA-ARAB), the Belgian Actuarial Bulletin (BAB).
The BAB is sponsored by KVBA-ARAB and is thus available free of charge from the website of the Belgian Society, at url
www.actuaweb.be
Click on literature, and then you switch to
www.stat.ucl.ac.be/BAB
where the BAB is hosted.
The aim of the BAB is to publish articles pertaining to the "art" and/or "sciences" involved in contemporary actuarial practice. Papers written from any quantitative point of view - whether actuarial, statistical, financial, mathematical, etc. - attacking relevant theoretical and applied insurance problems are welcome.
The BAB welcomes articles providing new ideas or techniques, articles improving existing ones as well as survey papers of pedagogical nature. Useful introduction or reviews of subjects new to many actuaries, or useful descriptions of present practice or possible future practice are appreciated. Such introductions, reviews or descriptions should be couched in language accessible to actuaries.
We are eagerly looking forward to the pleasure of receiving your contributions.
Yours faithfully,
Michel Denuit Institut de Statistique, Université catholique de Louvain Voie du Roman Pays, 20 B-1348 Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium denuit@stat.ucl.ac.be
