تقوم فكرة التأمين -باعتباره أهم طرق إدارة الأخطار- على حماية الأفراد والمنشآت من الخسائر المادية التي تلحق بهم نتيجة وقوع الخطر المؤمن منه، حيث يقوم التأمين على أساس التعاون بين مجموعة من المعرضين للخطر في تعويض الخسائر المادية التي تلحق ببعضهم، ولذا فإن دراسة التأمين أصبحت ضرورة من ضرورات المجتمع، إذ لا يقتصر دور شركات التأمين على دفع التعويضات للذين تحقق لهم الخطر، بل أصبح لها دور رئيسي في إدارة الأخطار واختيار أنسب الوسائل لمنع تلك الأخطار وتقليل الخسائر الناتجة عن الخطر

Dieses essential gibt einen Überblick zu aktuellen Erscheinungsformen der Portfolio Insurance sowie zur Anwendbarkeit der Constant-Proportion-Portfolio-Insurance mit vielfältigen Finanztiteln auf unterschiedlichen Geld- und Kapitalmärkten. Die empirische Untersuchung mit historischen Daten dazu umfasst einen Zeitraum von über sechs Jahren und ist in diesem Umfang ohne Vergleich. Die Darstellung und Vorgehensweise im Rahmen der Strategie erfolgt detailliert und wird mit Beispielen zur Replizierbarkeit unterstützt. Gleiches gilt für die empirischen Ergebnisse der unterschiedlichen Ergebnisse und der jeweiligen Finanztitel, die mit der Portfolio Insurance geschützt werden. Als Ergebnis wird deutlich, dass Transaktionskosten keinen wesentlichen Einfluss auf das Ergebnis der Strategien haben, negative Zinssätze jedoch den Erfolg maßgeblich negativ beeinflussen können.

This book is the first attempt to re-define objective risk. It addresses the cost of running out of capital as a generalized cost syndrome and explains how it is possible to describe this cost in such a way as to give it practical, real-life significance for personal finances, company finances and the economy as a whole. The discussion begins by presenting an intuitive and useful definition of risk: the probability of prospective capital shortfall. From this point it establishes a risk theory and expands the work of major thinkers such as Frank Knight and John Maynard Keynes, and adds reserve capital as a new financial risk management tool, with an economic function that is different from savings. This book will be of interest to economists, politicians, and decision makers as well as to the general public.

In January 1976, Raymond Barre, the first President of The Geneva Association, and Orio Giarini, its first Secretary General, founded The Geneva Papers on Risk and Insurance with the main goal of supporting and encouraging research in the economics of risk and insurance. At that time, research in the field of insurance was still embryonic and insurance was regarded as peripheral social activity. When sustained economic growth gained traction, the function of insurance gradually emerged as a key contributor to economic development. By integrating uncertainty into economic theory and benefiting from the progress of both financial economics and decision theory, research developed further in the field of insurance economics and risk management, and is now prolific. The Geneva Papers on Risk and Insurance undeniably contributed to this evolution and its impact on research in insurance has largely exceeded what its two founding members could have expected. This volume is a special collection of papers celebrating 40 Years of The Geneva Papers on Risk and Insurance. The collection looks back at the storied history of The Geneva Papers on Risk and Insurance and features papers from some of the esteemed authors who have contributed to the journal in its lifetime. This collection of papers highlights just a few of the many themes addressed in the papers published by the journal since it was created. Nevertheless, the selection exemplifies the richness and variety of topics the field of insurance covers.
