Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With climate change entering our doors and the nature of insurance markets changing, the study of risk in insurance has become ever more challenging. In addition, changes in mortality, migration, and working patterns all contribute to putting stress on individuals, institutions, and governments, with consequences in all areas of insurance and pensions.

The study of risk in insurance is, in its essence, multidisciplinary. In this Special Issue, we invite researchers to share their work, either theoretical or empirical, on risk analysis in insurance and pensions, presenting different perspectives and addressing questions in different areas, including actuarial and statistical methodology; the financial economics of insurance and pensions; social insurance; decentralized insurance; and sustainable insurance.

Dr. Alexandra Dias
