Invitation to a course on Fundamental Statistical Methods in Insurance (with emphasis on statistical challenges due to Solvency II) at Salzburg University
The Salzburg Institute of Actuarial Studies is pleased to be sending out information for the course on Fundamental Statistical Methods in Insurance (with emphasis on statistical challenges due to Solvency II) taking place at Salzburg University in from 28th September to 1st October 2016.
The current regulations in insurance supervision - especially with regard to the standard formula and internal models under Solvency II - require not only a profound knowledge of the underlying stochastic and statistical methods, but also sound justifications of the assumptions made based on the available statistical data. The course covers: statistical methods with regard to Solvency II, data analysis, stochastic risk models with special focus on their relevance for Solvency II, and simulation techniques.
The course is designed not only for actuarial students, but also addresses experienced practitioners.
For continuing professional development (CPD) the course counts as 21 hours.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
Best regards
