2 comments
Following the very positive feedback that Andreas and I have received from delegates of the first R in Insurance conference in July of this year, we are planning to repeat the event next year. We have already reserved a bigger auditorium.

The second conference on R in Insurance will be held on Monday 14 July 2014 at Cass Business School in London, UK.

This one-day conference will focus again on applications in insurance and actuarial science that use R, the lingua franca for statistical computation. Topics covered may include actuarial statistics, capital modelling, pricing, reserving, reinsurance and extreme events, portfolio allocation, advanced risk tools, high-performance computing, econometrics and more. All topics will be discussed within the context of using R as a primary tool for insurance risk management, analysis and modelling.

The intended audience of the conference includes both academics and practitioners who are active or interested in the applications of R in insurance.

Invited talks will be given by:
  • Arthur Charpentier, Département de mathématiques Université du Québec à Montréal
  • Montserrat Guillen, Dept. Econometrics University of Barcelona together with Leo Guelman, Royal Bank of Canada (RBC Insurance division)
The members of the scientific committee are: Katrien Antonio (University of Amsterdam and KU Leuven), Christophe Dutang (Université du Maine, France), Jens Nielsen (Cass), Andreas Tsanakas (Cass) and Markus Gesmann (ChainLadder project).

Details about the registration and abstract submission process will be published soon on www.RinInsurance.com.
