"Dark Patterns are ubiquitous: deliberate choices in website- or app-design that exploit unobservant or irrational behavior of users, tricking them into reaching agreements or consenting with settings that are not in line with the users’ actual preferences."
"We summarize core features of a capital regime such as expected and unexpected losses, regulatory ratios and risk-weighted assets, and minimum requirements and buffers, and then consider where climate-related risk drivers may be relevant."
"This paper analyzes how governments support insurance markets to maintain insurability and limit risks to society. We propose a new conceptual framework grouping government interventions into three dimensions: regulation of risky activity, public investment in risk reduction, and co-insurance."
"This implementation in France provides a new framework for non-financial information and marks a major turning point towards greater potential responsibilities for members of the management bodies of the large corporations in question, in particular with the description of diversity policy: non-financial reporting is reviewed via an overall analysis guided by the materiality principle and genuine sustainable compliance based on a prior and relevant risk assessment."
"Using the lab, in numerical case studies, we identify two classes of measures to control systemic cyber risks: security- and topology-based interventions. We discuss the implications of our findings on selected real-world cybersecurity measures currently applied in the insurance and regulation practice or under discussion for future cyber risk control. To this end, we provide a brief overview of the current cybersecurity regulation and emphasize the role of insurance companies as private regulators."
"Our paper contributes to the theory of conditional risk measures and conditional certainty equivalents. We adopt a random modular approach which proved to be effective in the study of modular convex analysis and conditional risk measures."
"Despite its relevance, forward-looking information is still a confusing topic, in terms of contents and applications, especially in the context of ESG, where there is a need for greater clarity and standardization of the definitions of the ESG indicators."
"... I consider the effectiveness of the Compliance role within the organisational structure and how far the demarcation of the function and its assigned duties are achieving an enterprise-wide culture of good governance and compliance. I posit that, although the delineation of clear responsibilities is important, the benefits of ostensible independence brought about by the departmentalisation of compliance may not be the definite answer to the complex, if not esoteric, challenges faced by organisations in matters of compliance."
"This paper extends the traditional multi-state models to include epidemic effects."
"... we propose a reverse stress testing framework for dynamic models. Specifically, we consider a compound Poisson process over a finite time horizon and stresses composed of expected values of functions applied to the process at the terminal time. We then define the stressed model as the probability measure under which the process satisfies the constraints and which minimizes the KullbackLeibler divergence to the reference compound Poisson model."
