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.
