The Road Less Travelled: Keynes and Knight on Probability and Uncertainty

"The possibilities of a Keynesian-Knightian synthesis as a way forward are considered by comparing these signposts. It is argued that, although there is some common ground between Knight and Keynes, there are fundamental differences particularly associated with Keynes’s concept of weight of argument."

Spatial Distance and Risk Category Effects in Enterprise Risk Management Practice

"... we find the difference in decision-makers’ probability assessments between operational and non-operational risk factors is greater when assessing a proximate rather than a remote target. We contribute to the accounting literature by demonstrating how spatial distance affects probability judgments."

A Conditional One‑Output Likelihood Formulation for Multitask Gaussian Processes

"Experimental results over synthetic and real problems confirm the advantages of this inference approach in its ability to accurately recover the original noise and signal matrices, as well as the achieved performance improvement in comparison to other state of art MTGP approaches."

New Stochastic Orders and Monotone Comparative Statics of Changes in Risk under Risk Aversion

"We... apply two stochastic orders to some classic decision problems in economics and finance including a portfolio problem, two insurance problems, and four management decision problems and present a simple sufficient condition for monotone comparative statics of changes in risk under risk aversion."

The Evolution of Insurance Pricing

Date : Tags : , , , , ,
"The growing sophistication of insurance pricing, particularly for property-casualty insurance and reinsurance risk, has created a proliferation of approaches used in practice. Even within firms, pricing methodologies can vary from line to line, ranging from simplistic expected loss ratio targets to sophisticated return on capital models and even more sophisticated probability transform methods."

Uncertainty Quantification of Multi‑Scale Resilience in Nonlinear Complex Networks

" In order to quantify resilience uncertainty across the network resolutions (from macro-scale network statistics to individual node dynamics), we propose an arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) expansion method to identify the probability of a node in losing its resilience and how the different model parameters contribute to this risk on a single node."
