► The research programme
The research programme on risk and insurance economics comprises the theoretical and academic activities of the Association.
It is dedicated to:
■ making an original contribution to the progress of insurance through promoting studies of the interdependence between economics and insurance;
■ highlighting the importance of risk and insurance economics as part of the modern general economic theory;
■ detecting and defining special aims for research programmes in risk and insurance economics;
■ stimulating and supporting academic and professional research work in risk and insurance economics throughout the world; and
■ diffusing knowledge and the results of research in risk and insurance economics worldwide.
► EGRIE
EGRIE is a European-based non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting research on risk and insurance. This is mainly achieved through the organisation of scientific conferences and meetings, the publication of research materials and the creation of a contact network amongst the concerned parties. EGRIE was created by The Geneva Association in 1973 and has been supported by the Association since then.
For any further information regarding EGRIE activities, and in particular past and future seminars, please visit the EGRIE website.
The proceedings of the EGRIE seminars are published in The Geneva Association’s Etudes et Dossiers. ►More
