Mathematical and Statistical Methods for Actuarial Sciences and Finance

摘要

The MAF 2010 Conference, organized by the University of Salerno in Ravello, Italy, was developed on the basis of cooperation between mathematicians and statisticians working in the insurance and finance fields. The papers are drawn from this conference and give a flavor of the research and real life applications of statistical and mathematical models used in the actuarial and financial sciences. The interdisciplinary approach aims to aid research further into the areas of finance and insurance and this is a difficult text for the novice to be able to follow, however for those researching this area it is a useful text to read.
