CERTIFIED MASTER IN INSURANCE RISK AND CLAIMS MANAGEMENT
 
COURSE OVERVIEW
Insurance Risk Management is the assessment and quantification of the likelihood and financial impact of events that may occur in the customer’s world that require settlement by the insurer, and the ability to spread the risk of these events occurring across other insurance underwriters in the market. Risk Management work typically involves the application of mathematical and statistical modeling to determine appropriate premium cover and the value of insurance risk to ‘hold’ vs. ‘distribute’.
 
This course examines modern techniques for managing financial risks associated with the Insurance industry.
 
These Financial / Insurance risks are generally classified into market risks, due to movement in financial prices or volatilities, credit risks, due to the fact that counter-parties are unwilling or unable to fulfill their contractual obligations, liquidity risks, when transactions cannot be conducted at prevailing market prices, perhaps due to cash flow constraints, and operational risks, which arise from human or technical problems.
