WELCOME TO THE INSURANCE AND RISK MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT,

an independently managed site at the Wharton School
of the University of Pennsylvania.

 

Wharton's Insurance and Risk Management Department, the first of its kind in the world, approaches its field from a number of different perspectives: as a market, a risk management technique, a business, and as an instrument of public policy. Wharton faculty examine insurance against a background of accelerating change in the legal, regulatory, organizational, and economic environment in which businesses operate. Other risk management tools are evaluated from a financial management viewpoint.

The department also focuses on actuarial science, which includes actuarial mathematics, statistics, computer technology, and operations research, as well as insurance and other business disciplines.
