Summary on Grant Application Form |
Problems of risk management have been around for a long time. In the context of monetary risk, until fairly recently the actuarial profession and its traditional approach has been pre-eminent. With the emergence of arbitrage free pricing theory (AFPT) in finance this has changed.In order to gain the benefits of AFPT, risk needs to be interpreted in the context of a market. Recent development in Mathematical Finance have made this goal achievable. The proposed research is to achieve it by extending the existing analysis of AFPT in the presence of bid-offer spreads and of coherent risk measures so that an integrated approach to monetary risk management, hedging and reserving is feasible.In detail, the research will establish how to impute a market in risk from a given coherent risk measure, establish how to expand such a market to allow for a dynamic approach to hedging/reserving, explore finite and implementable approximations to such a (potentially infinite) market and seek to produce a prototype implementation.
