This project will investigate the optimal level of capital, pricing and solvency for an insurance company in an equilibrium framework.

The convergence of insurance and financial markets and the recently highlighted importance of events such as the World Trade Centre Disaster on September 11, requires that these issues be addressed in an integrated research program combining actuarial and financial economic theory.
