SUMMARY:CAST Seminar: Mogens Steffensen
DESCRIPTION:\nJoin us at the CANSSI Ontario STatistics Seminars (CAST) with\n\n\n\nMogens Steffensen\n\n\n\nHead of DepartmentProfessor of Life Insurance Mathematics Department of Mathematical SciencesUniversity of Copenhagen\n\n\n\nFree Event | Registration Required\n\n\n\nTalk Title\n\n\n\nMulti-State Optimization Problems in Personal Finance and Insurance\n\n\n\nAbstract\n\n\n\nWe discuss problem formulations and solutions to optimization problems based on the time-inhomogeneous continuous-time Markov chain, which formalizes insurable risks such as health and lifetime uncertainty. We solve problems with state-independent and state-dependent risk aversion and illustrate the results in a disability model in which risk aversion is preserved, decreases, or increases upon disability. We also discuss the validity of the approach to uncertain risk aversion and consider some alternative ideas leading to issues with time consistency.\n\n\n\nSpeaker Profile\n\n\n\nMogens Steffensen is a professor of life insurance mathematics and head of the Department for Mathematical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. His research covers various valuation and decision-making problems in insurance and finance. He has recently been interested in integrating insurance and pension decisions into classical consumption-investment problems. He participates in industrial discussions and research projects about solvency, risk management, and product design. He is a member of the board of directors and chairman of the audit committee of PFA Pension, the largest Danish commercial pension fund.\n
