Brian Hey Prize
The General Insurance Steering Group ("GISG") Committee of the Institute
and Faculty of Actuaries is delighted to announce the Brian Hey Prize for
the best paper on the topic of "The financial theory of General Insurance
risk pricing". The first prize will be L1,000 and the second prize will be
L500. Winning authors will be invited to present their papers at the joint
GISG/ASTIN conference on 7-10 October 1998 to be held in Glasgow, as well
as being encouraged to publish the papers more widely. They will also be
granted free entry to the conference at the academic rate.
The Prize is open to everyone, actuaries or non-actuaries, within or
outside the UK. The Prize will only be granted if papers of sufficient
quality are received to merit it. Papers should be no more than 50 pages
long, include an abstract and be submitted in english by 1 July 1998 to
Barbara Beebee, secretary of the GI Board at the Institute of Actuaries,
Staple Inn Hall, London. Guidance on the format of the paper can be
obtained from Barbara Beebee.
The paper should be submitted under a pseudonym, so authors should include
a sealed envelope bearing the author's details. The GISG Committee will
decide on the winning paper and their decision is final. The 1998 GISG
Committee is likely to be Nigel Gillott, Colin Czapiewski, Julian Lowe and
Kathryn Morgan. Winners will be notified during August 1998 and announced
at the 1998 GISG/ASTIN conference.
