Although existing literature claims that consumers are ready for proximity mobile payments, the reality is that adoption is still low in South Africa. Service providers' attempts to translate this potential into profit is hindered by consumers' perception of risks associated with proximity...

The aim of this paper is to provide a stochastic model useful for assessing the capital requirement for demographic risk in a framework coherent with the Solvency II Directive. The model extends to the market consistent context classical methodologies developed in a local accounting framework....

We discuss aspects of numerical methods for the computation of Gerber-Shiu or discounted penalty-functions in renewal risk models. We take an analytical point of view and link this function to a partial-integro-differential equation and propose a numerical method for its solution. We show weak...

This paper models the gradual elements of catastrophic events on non-life insurance capital with a particular focus on the impact of pandemics, such as COVID-19. A combination of actuarial and epidemiological models are handled by the Markovian probabilistic approach, with Feynman's path...
