The first Risk and Stochastics Day features the following invited speakers: - David Hobson (University of Warwick), - Ragnar Norberg (LSE), - Nizar Touzi (Ecole Polytechnique), - Rafael Schmidt (Bank for International Settlements), - Erik Baurdoux (LSE) - Shanle Wu (LSE). They will present results from their research reflecting the ongoing merger of finance and insurance into a comprehensive concept of risk management. They will consider especially the problems of risk measurement and modelling and the design of exotic products based on risks at the frontier of finance and insurance.
