This paper proposes a novel mixed-frequency quantile vector autoregression (MF-QVAR) model that uses a #bayesian framework and multivariate asymmetric Laplace distribution to estimate missing low-frequency variables at higher frequencies. The proposed method allows for timely policy interventions by analyzing conditional quantiles for multiple variables of interest and deriving quantile-related #riskmeasures at high frequency. The model is applied to the US economy to #nowcast conditional quantiles of #gdp, providing insight into #var, Expected Shortfall, and distance among percentiles of real GDP nowcasts.

"#risksharing is one way to pool risks without the need for a #thirdparty. To ensure the attractiveness of such a system, the rule should be accepted and understood by all participants. A desirable risk-sharing rule should fulfill #actuarial fairness and #pareto optimality while being easy to compute. This paper establishes a one-to-one correspondence between an actuarially fair #paretooptimal (AFPO) risk-sharing rule and a fixed point of a specific function."

This paper focuses on the development of #bayesian classification and regression tree (#cart) models for claims frequency modeling in non-life #insurance pricing. The authors propose the use of the zero-inflated #poisson distribution to address the issue of imbalanced claims data and introduce a general MCMC algorithm for posterior tree exploration. Additionally, the deviance information criterion (DIC) is used for model selection. The paper discusses the applicability of these models through simulations and real insurance data.

"We present a novel approach to quantify the uncertainty and sensitivity of risk estimates, using the CLIMADA open-source climate risk assessment platform. This work builds upon a recently developed extension of CLIMADA, which uses statistical modelling techniques to better quantify climate model ensemble uncertainty. Here, we further analyse the propagation of hazard, exposure and vulnerability uncertainties by varying a number of input factors based on a discrete, scientifically justified set of options."

"We respond to Tetlock et al. (2022) showing 1) how expert judgment fails to reflect tail risk, 2) the lack of compatibility between forecasting tournaments and tail risk assessment methods (such as extreme value theory). More importantly, we communicate a new result showing a greater gap between the properties of tail expectation and those of the corresponding probability."

"Bayesian estimates from experimental data can be influenced by highly diffuse or "uninformative" priors. This paper discusses how practitioners can use their own expertise to critique and select a prior that (i) incorporates our knowledge as experts in the field, and (ii) achieves favorable sampling properties. I demonstrate these techniques using data from eleven experiments of decision-making under risk, and discuss some implications of the findings."

" In this paper, we use stochastic algorithms schemes in estimating MSRM [market data based systemic risk measure] and prove that the resulting estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal. We also test numerically the performance of these algorithms on several examples."

"Our paper contributes to the theory of conditional risk measures and conditional certainty equivalents. We adopt a random modular approach which proved to be effective in the study of modular convex analysis and conditional risk measures."

"This paper extends the traditional multi-state models to include epidemic effects."

"... we propose a reverse stress testing framework for dynamic models. Specifically, we consider a compound Poisson process over a finite time horizon and stresses composed of expected values of functions applied to the process at the terminal time. We then define the stressed model as the probability measure under which the process satisfies the constraints and which minimizes the KullbackLeibler divergence to the reference compound Poisson model."
