Republic
The IASB has finally come to agree on a Standard for Insurance

to provide participants with a comprehensive introduction to the
new measurement, presentation and disclosure guidance for insurance
contracts. It will cover life and non-life business, including the

An Introduction to Economic Scenario
Generators and their Validation
12/13 April 2018 | Madrid, Spain
The Economic Scenario Generators are at the core of stochastic
models used by insurance companies. The applications of stochastic
models are very diverse and include such applications as economic
capital under Solvency II, ALM projections, dynamic hedging etc.
All these applications impose different requirements upon the
generation and the validation of economic scenarios. This seminar
has been developed for professionals who are interested in Economic
Scenario Generators because they deal with one or more applications
of those and who are familiar with the basic concepts of financial
math.

Casualty

just) Fulfilling the Solvency II
Directive
