Topics of Interest

The Seminar Planning Task Force would like to invite submission of papers on the below topics.

  • Pet Insurance Pricing
    Pet insurance grows rapidly in recent years in Taiwan though the loss experience also shows an evident increasing trend. The difficulty of pricing pet insurance comprises of lacking unified system of vet medical record, chaotic medical expenses standard among each clinic and so forth. How to deal with those intractable issues becomes a conundrum for pricing pet insurance.
     
  • EV Pricing
    Due to the strict regulation in Taiwan, the rating variables as well as the rating algorithm which are used for EV insurance products are designated by DOI. Since the inflexible rule will influence the accuracy of pricing and may further cause the adverse selection, DOI is planning to relax it in the near future. Learning which rating variables are critical to price EV insurance in advance can help insurance company to prepare for the change.
