What FIN/440 is really about

Risk management identifies exposures, measures their likely frequency and severity and chooses whether to avoid, reduce, retain or transfer them. FIN/440 introduces probability and loss distributions, the work of actuaries and underwriters, property, liability, life and health insurance and the contracts and laws that govern them.

Assignments usually include a risk assessment for a business or family, calculations of expected loss, a comparison of insurance options, an analysis of an annuity and a discussion of how regulation or legislation affects insurers and buyers.

What FIN/440’s assessments ask for

Faculty look for exposures identified systematically, expected losses computed correctly, risk treatment choices justified by cost and severity and insurance terms explained accurately.

Where students lose points in FIN/440

Work loses credit when insurance is recommended for every risk regardless of cost, when frequency and severity are confused or when policy exclusions are overlooked. Vague references to regulation without naming the rule also weaken answers.
