Boundary Crossing Analysis for Random Processes with Applications to Risk Management. Effective management of environmental, financial and superannuation investment risks is vitally important for Australia. Results of the project will add to the theoretical foundations of risk management and provide new computational tools for specialists working in the areas of financial engineering, insurance, superannuation funds. These tools will assist in improving risk profile evaluation and developing new ....Boundary Crossing Analysis for Random Processes with Applications to Risk Management. Effective management of environmental, financial and superannuation investment risks is vitally important for Australia. Results of the project will add to the theoretical foundations of risk management and provide new computational tools for specialists working in the areas of financial engineering, insurance, superannuation funds. These tools will assist in improving risk profile evaluation and developing new statistical control charts for security monitoring of epidemics, networks intrusions and other potentially dangerous changes. The research will also give Australia a competitive advantage in the area of education related to stochastic processes, mathematical finance, control theory and their applications.Read moreRead less
Stochastic analysis and the development and application of financial risk processes. Ensuring the stability of Australia's financial system requires an understanding of the complex financial instruments, strategies and technologies that have evolved in recent years. A strong well-integrated research effort in stochastic analysis with particular application to financial markets is fundamental for measuring and managing risk, to protect and preserve a well functioning system, and to inform policy ....Stochastic analysis and the development and application of financial risk processes. Ensuring the stability of Australia's financial system requires an understanding of the complex financial instruments, strategies and technologies that have evolved in recent years. A strong well-integrated research effort in stochastic analysis with particular application to financial markets is fundamental for measuring and managing risk, to protect and preserve a well functioning system, and to inform policy debate on financial strategies and insurance liabilities.
These challenges are global and require extensive international research collaboration and interaction. The present project will enhance Australia's contributions in this area and facilitate its global impact more than is possible through individual efforts.Read moreRead less
New valuation and parallel simulation methods for finance and insurance. Many Australians have superannuation savings and hold life insurance contracts. Hence, the price and risk of these investments is of particular importance to the welfare of Australia. The proposed research will improve the financial security of Australians by demonstrating that many long term insurance and superannuation products require far less capital than currently suggested. This project will provide path breaking fron ....New valuation and parallel simulation methods for finance and insurance. Many Australians have superannuation savings and hold life insurance contracts. Hence, the price and risk of these investments is of particular importance to the welfare of Australia. The proposed research will improve the financial security of Australians by demonstrating that many long term insurance and superannuation products require far less capital than currently suggested. This project will provide path breaking frontier technology for enhancing the performance of superannuation funds, insurance companies and banks, giving these Australian institutions a competitive advantage. An additional outcome will be global growth for sectors of Australia's IT industry, developing related software and tailored hardware.
