DESCRIPTION

You will learn the fundamentals of Financial Institutions (Insurance companies, Asset Managers and Pension Funds), and the working of these institutions in the financial markets. What are the risks where these institutions have to deal with? How can you use quantitative methods to identify, monitor and report the different risks? How are they aligned with each other and, last but not least, how can you manage these risks with all this knowledge? The course will also focus on how you manage an Insurance company with regard to capital. How can you optimize your capital and is there a future for Insurance companies?
