Stochastic Asset Modelling

Ng Hui Ming and Philip Mowbray presented Stochastic Asset Modelling and Designing Retirement Portfolios talks respectively to ASM today at MAA Auditorium. The talks attracted close to 80 ASM's members attending. Even with such huge turnout, the auditorium looked so empty because of its huge size as can been seen from the photos below.

Hui Ming covered topics like Introduction to stochastic modelling, Applications of stochastic modelling within the life insurance industry, Calibrating stochastic models and Challenges faced. Philip on the other hand presented 3 case studies using retirement products commonly seen in the life insurance industry to illustrate the application of stochastic modelling.

1 CPD hour is awarded for members who attended the talks.
