Alex Mürmann appointed co-Editor-in-Chief of The Geneva Risk and Insurance Review

Al­ex­an­der Mürmann, Pro­fessor for Risk Man­age­ment and In­sur­ance at the WU-De­part­ment of Fin­ance, Ac­count­ing and Stat­ist­ics and Pro­gram Dir­ector of the Vi­enna Gradu­ate School of Fin­ance (VGSF), has been ap­poin­ted as new co-Ed­it­or­-in-Chief of The Geneva Risk and In­sur­ance Re­view as of Janu­ary 2019. The Geneva Risk and In­sur­ance Re­view is the aca­demic journal of the European Group of Risk and In­sur­ance Econom­ists (EGRIE) and the Geneva As­so­ci­ation (GA). It pub­lishes ori­ginal re­search that ad­vances our un­der­stand­ing of the eco­nom­ics of risk and in­sur­ance. Pub­lished twice a year this in­ter­na­tional journal provides a forum for the ex­change of aca­demic find­ings and views on all aspects of risk and in­sur­ance eco­nom­ics, with em­phasis on the­or­et­ical, em­pir­ical and ex­per­i­mental re­search in these fields.

EGRIE was foun­ded in 1973 by the Geneva As­so­ci­ation, the lead­ing in­ter­na­tional think tank of the in­sur­ance in­dustry. EGRIE is ded­ic­ated to pro­mot­ing re­search and cre­at­ing a net­work of aca­dem­ics do­ing re­search on risk and in­sur­ance. This is achieved through the pub­lic­a­tion of the The Geneva Risk and In­sur­ance Re­view and the or­gan­isa­tion of scien­ti­fic con­fer­ences and meet­ings. The an­nual EGRIE con­fer­ence has evolved into one of the most im­port­ant con­fer­ence in in­sur­ance eco­nom­ics.
