Actuarial Modelling III

This subject aims to provide a grounding in stochastic modelling techniques that are of particular relevance to actuarial work in general insurance, covering loss distribution with and without risk sharing, calculation of moments and moment generating function of aggregate claims, recursion formulae, effect of reinsurance, individual risk model involving recursion formulae and approximations, modelling dependence by copulas, extreme value theorems and applications, and time series models.
