What Actuaries Can Learn From 1918 Author, Publication, Date: Max J. Rudolph, Risk Management Newsletter, Excerpt: Introduction Tail risk has gotten the actuarial professions attention. With supposedly 10 Sigma events occurring almost every year and contagion risk consistently underestimated, best estimate assumptions using a single economic scenario are not sufficient. Many practitioners have known this for years, but technology now allows actuaries to model and manage these risks. These models generally use a combination of stochastic and deterministic scenarios. Interest rates and equity returns are often modeled deterministically to address specific risks and stochastically to cover the universe of possibilities. Risks as diverse as earthquakes and anthrax attacks can be similarly modeled. Pandemic Influenza’s Impact on Health Systems Author, Publication, Date: Max J.
