Add Tag | Summary: | Actuarial work is the application of mathematics and statistics to the analysis of financial problems in life insurance, pensions, general insurance, and investments. This unique introduction to the topic employs both a deterministic and stochastic treatment of the subject. It combines interest theory and life contingencies in a unified manner, as well as covering basic risk theory. Fundamentals of Actuarial Mathematics presents the concepts in an original, accessible style, assuming a minimal formal background. This book will be invaluable to senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as actuarial professionals working in the life insurance or pension fields. Applied mathematicians and economists will also benefit greatly from the clear presentation and numerous examples.--Jacket |
