Abstract:
Introduction. Early notification of a fire by means of fire automation can save human lives and significantly reduce material damage in case of fires. One of the ways to provide housing stock fund with fire automation is insurance. The relevance of the research is to develop a model for reducing fire risks in housing through the insurance system in the Russian Federation. Goals and objectives. The purpose of the article is to create a model for managing fire risks in housing through the domestic insurance system. This goal allows us to solve the problem of reducing fire risks in the housing stock. Methods. They include methods of system analysis, mathematical statistics, technical and economic analysis, and mathematical modeling. The research was based on domestic and foreign literature, legal and regulatory sources, statistical materials and results of research works on the subject of the study. Results and discussion. Solutions to the model of fire risk management in housing through the domestic insurance system are found. Conclusion. The results of solving the problem of reducing the risk of death in fires in the residential sector through the insurance system are presented. The decision is based on the economic motivation of both insurers and policyholders. An algorithm and model for reducing fire risks through the insurance system are proposed that allow achieving voluntary, economically motivated compliance with fire safety requirements. Key words: fires, loss of life in fires, fire risks, fire automation, fire insurance.

Abstract:
Adaptation to urban fire hazard through the medium of insurance preceded effective means of containing fire risk in Canada's cities, towns, and villages. Fire hazard was more acute in small places than large cities, yet the former were least apt to be protected by adequate insurance coverage. This paper reviews the Canadian fire insurance industry in the late nineteenth century, and considers the implications of 494 major reported fires during the 1880s. The evidence suggests that major fires in minor places contributed to their diminishing role in the commercial and industrial fabric of proto-modern Canadian urban society.

Abstract:
In this article we investigate supply and demand factors that have been put forward to explain the growth of fire insurance markets in Sweden during the financial revolution. We show that income growth and urbanisation fostered the demand for fire insurance. The supply of fire insurance, on the other hand, helps explain financial market development. Fire insurance assisted in mortgaging fixed assets, such as houses, through guaranteeing them as collateral. On both the supply side and the demand side, fire insurance was a key factor of the financial revolution in Sweden.

Abstract:
Fire is considered one of the major natural hazards that damages European forests and causes losses for forest owner. The forest fires endanger the financial stability of forest enterprises, which may cause their economic decline. One possibility how to cover these losses is to insure forest land against this kind of specific risk of forest land management. The aim of the present paper is to analyse possibilities of forest fire insurance for forest owners and enterprises in the Slovak private insurance market. The market analysis was based on document analysis of general terms and insurance conditions of chosen private insurance companies and interviews with insurance agents. The results show that forest owners and enterprises have only few options for forest property insurance concerning the specific risk of forest fires. Only one commercial insurance company provides such forest fire insurance product for forest owners. This insurance covers material damage to forest land and timber damage.

Abstract:
Mestrado em Ciências Actuariais
In risk aggregation we are interested in the distribution of the sum of dependent risks. The objective of risk aggregation and dependence modeling is to model adequately dependent insurance portfolios in order to evaluate the overall risk exposure. This master thesis investigates some practical aspects of modeling risk aggregation and dependency. We give an introduction to copula-based hierarchical aggregation model through reordering algorithm. This approach can be easily applicable in high dimensions and consists of a tree structure, bivariate copulas, and marginal distributions. This method is empirically illustrated using data set of Danish Fire Insurance Data. These data were collected at Copenhagen Reinsurance over the period 1980 to 1990 and every total claim has been divided into three risks consisting of a building loss, a loss of contents and a loss of profits caused by the same fire.

Abstract:
O risco de incêndio e seus prejuízos às vidas humanas e ao patrimônio tornaram-se cada vez maiores com o desenvolvimento urbano e a evolução da construção civil. Assim, os meios de proteção contra o incêndio tornam-se cada vez mais necessários, tanto os meios ativos (sprinklers, brigada de incêndio, etc), quanto os meios passivos (proteção térmica de estruturas, etc). Em situação de incêndio, a proteção à vida e ao patrimônio deve ser garantida pelos meios de proteção das edificações evitando-se o colapso de parte ou toda estrutura. A eventualidade do sinistro não deve ser desprezada sendo que, melhorar o desempenho das estruturas visando a iminência de um incêndio é sinônimo de economia em um aspecto abrangente: proteção à vida, ao patrimônio e à atividade econômica desenvolvida no estabelecimento. Neste trabalho, realiza-se uma apresentação do tema comportamento das estruturas de concreto em situação de incêndio, abordando aspectos de análise de risco incêndio, seguro contra incêndio, o fenômeno incêndio e suas variáveis, meios de proteção térmica das estruturas e aspectos arquitetônicos e estruturais que influenciam na probabilidade de ocorrência de um incêndio. No plano experimental, analisa-se a susceptibilidade ao fogo do concreto, através da aferição da perda de resistência mecânica de alguns traços submetidos a curvas de temperatura. Realiza-se também a análise de um caso real de incêndio sob o ponto de vista da descrição do incêndio, seus danos às estruturas de concreto e metodologia de recuperação das estruturas afetadas.
The fire risk and its damage to the human being lifes and to the assets had become each time greater with the urban development and the evolution of civil construction. Thus, the ways of fire protection become each time more necessary, as much the direct assets (fire sprinklers, brigade, etc), as the indirect assets (structural thermal insullation, etc). In fire situation, the protection to the life and the assets must be guaranteed by the ways of protection inside buildings, preventing high costs of structural recovery and, mainly, the immediate collapse of all or part of the structure. The ocurrence of a fire accident does not have to be rejected and improving the performance of the structures aiming at the imminence of a fire is synonymous of economy in an including aspect: protection to the life, protection to the assets and to the activities in the building. In this work, a general overview of the behavior of concrete structures in fire situation is presented, approaching aspects of fire risk analysis, fire insurance, the fire phenomenon and its interferences, methods for thermal insullation and structural and architectural aspects that have influence in the probability of a fire occurrence. In the experimental plan, the susceptibility of hardened concrete to the fire is analysed, through the measurement of its mechanical resistance loss submitted to the high temperatures. The analysis of a real fire case in a building is also presented, highlighting the description of the fire, its damages to the hardened concrete structures and the development of a methodology of recovering the affected structures.

Abstract:
This essay is intended to be broad in scope. Therefore, inevitably, it touches on some issues which are not explored in detail in the articles listed above and which, for reasons of space, cannot be given the detailed attention they deserve here. There is much scope for further research. ' The essay is structured in six parts. Part 1 traces the historical development of liability insurance as an outgrowth of accident insurance, a broad miscellaneous class with its own origins in the revolutionary changes in industry, trade, and transport that began as the eighteenth century drew to a close. Part 2 analyses the problems that began to emerge once liability insurance became a class of insurance in its own right. This section shows, in particular, how liability insurers came to assume long-tail risks, exposures of a kind that were always regarded as uninsurable in the context of firstparty insurance. Part 3 looks at how insurers have responded to these difficulties and examines the technical problems they face in attempting to design contracts that satisfy both the security requirements of policyholders and their own need to price liability risks accurately and reduce their uncertainties to manageable proportions. Part 4 examines behavioural aspects of liability insurance and the issue of moral hazard: the possibility that the granting of insurance cover might promote opportunistic behaviour or modify human actions in a way that adversely affects the interests of insurers, or society as whole, or both. It is argued that this phenomenon takes on extra dimensions in the context of liability insurance, creating additional layers of uncertainty for insurers and greater potential instability for liability insurance systems. Part 5 examines a connected issue: the relationship between liability insurance and liability rules, especially those of tort law. Here we consider the extent to which the existence or availability of insurance impacts upon judicial and legislative policy, and the extent to which it should properly do so. The essay concludes, in Part 6, with a summary of the issues explored and an assessment of possible future developments in liability insurance markets. As part of this assessment the perceptions of the major stakeholders in the systems that employ liability insurance are considered, including liability insurers, the Government, the general public and the lawmakers. It is observed that these perceptions - as to the proper role of liability insurance, and what can be achieved effectively through its use - differ widely. The author concludes that all would benefit from a better informed and, perhaps, more realistic assessment of what liability insurance can do, and what it cannot. If the system is to remain stable, there is a need for a greater understanding of the problems of liability insurance, and the limits of its effectiveness, amongst all stakeholders in the tort/liability insurance system, including the lawmakers, the Government, the public at large and insurers themselves.

Business Administration/Risk Management and Insurance
Ph.D.
This dissertation investigates the relationships between reinsurance activities and primary insurers' financial performance in U.S. property-liability insurance market from several perspectives. The first essay investigates the relationship between ceding insurer performance and the affiliation, domicile, and authorization of its counterparties. Specifically, we provide empirical evidence that ceding insurer financial performance is positively related to the use of affiliated reinsurance, the use of foreign reinsurance, and the use of affiliated reinsurance that is ceded to the low-tax, lightly-regulated domiciled counterparties; and negatively related to the use of unauthorized reinsurance. These results are consistent with the cost of information asymmetry theory. The second essay investigates reinsurance counterparty relationships in U.S. property-liability insurance. Firm-specific characteristics determinants of counterparty relationships are examined. We also analyze the relationship between firm performance and reinsurance counterparty relationships. We find that concentration in reinsurance counterparties, especially in unaffiliated counterparties, is adversely related to insurer performance due to higher information asymmetry. On the other hand, relationship with foreign counterparties is positive related to performance, suggesting the foreign reinsurers may have a favorable position in terms of tax treatment, specialized service, among other factors.

Abstract:
Although the economic motivation and efficiency effects of mergers and acquisitions (M & As) in the insurance industry have been discussed, none of the prior studies have addressed the relationship between M & A activity and insurance price change. In addition, little is known about the effect of diversification on the differences in insurance price across lines. The main objective of the dissertation is to provide evidence on these issues. A secondary objective is to investigate the relationship between M & A activity and insurer’s efficiency and financial performance. We also examine various firm characteristics that affect insurance price differences across lines and that influence insurer’s efficiency and performance. We conduct fixed effects model regressions to test our hypotheses using unbalanced panel data over the sample period 1989-2004. The empirical tests indicate that the price of insurance for newly formed insurers decreases following the M & As and diversified insurers charge lower prices than less diversified firms. Our result is consistent with one possible explanation that acquiring insurers reduce overall underwriting risks and more efficiently manage the frictional costs of capital through geographic and/or product line diversification by engaging in the M & As and therefore gain a competitive advantage in pricing. Our analysis also reveals a number of other interesting results. We find that insurance price is positively related to marginal capital allocation and inversely related to firm insolvency put value, suggesting the importance of incorporating insolvency risk and marginal capital costs in pricing lines of insurance business. We also find that the price of insurance is inversely related to cost efficiency, consistent with the efficiency structure hypothesis. However, the market share variable is not significant, implying that market power that can arise from M & A activity may not be a big concern for insurance regulators. In the analysis of efficiency and financial performance, we provide evidence that acquirers’ overall cost and revenue efficiency and financial performances decrease following M & As. We also find that more focused insurers outperform the diversified insurers.

Abstract:
Business Administration/Risk Management and Insurance
Ph.D.
The first part of the dissertation aims to determine whether and how variances in reinsurance relationships impact insurers' financial performance during the sample period of 2002-2012. Such impact on insurers' financial performance is measured by accounting measurements of ROA and ROE and by the efficiency scores (cost, revenue, and profit) estimated using data envelopment analysis (DEA). This essay analyzes how the usage of captive reinsurance affects life insurers’ firm performance using multivariate regression model. Results show that firm performance is negatively related to captive reinsurance arrangements. The second essay analyzes the value effects of mergers and acquisitions (M&As) in the global insurance industry by conducting an event study of M&A transactions that occurred during the period of 1990-2014, including two M&A waves before the financial crisis and the M&A activities after it. Our results show that (1) M&As are value-enhancing for both acquirers and targets over the whole sample period; (2) for acquirers, within-border transactions are more likely to be value-enhancing, while for targets, both cross-border and within-border transactions are value-enhancing; and (3) for acquirers, the cross-industry M&As are more likely to be value-enhancing, while for targets both cross- and within- border M&As are value-enhancing.

Abstract:
AbstractChilean society is confronted with increasing risk from wildfires. Individual rather than collective risk management solutions predominate. Large forest companies, for example, reduce the probability of wildfires affecting their tree plantations with hierarchically-ordered management routines. Additionally, they purchase insurance policies to protect themselves from economic losses. Other stakeholders in the Chilean forest regions, however, do not have the same access to these forms of risk management due to the high degree of technical knowledge and organizational competences required. In his contribution, Michael Handke assesses the strengths and weaknesses of interacting hierarchical and market forms of risk management and calls for a deeper geographical approach to risk governance. He reveals that detailed geographical knowledge of wildfires is explicitly decontextualized and even ignored in current risk management practices. As a result, essential knowledge about the causes and effects of arson, which seem to be on the rise in Chile, is lost.

Abstract:
Business interruption insurance is a type of insurance that covers the loss of income when a company suffers a catastrophic event such as natural disaster, massive fire damage or a huge machinery failure. Closing of the business facility due to the rebuilding process, which is typically considered only property damage in insurance terms, actually has far greater impact on any company as a whole. Many owners, managers and chief executive officers view business interruption insurance predominantly as expense, but global market trends require such policies to be implemented as key basis for modern risk management. For croatian insurance market business interruption policies are still developing as a tailor-made insurance product, while in European insurance market they are considered common business practice. This work is an overview of essential factors which determine business interruption insurance.

Abstract:
In 1752, the year Benjamin Franklin is credited with the invention of the lightning rod, he also established the first American fire insurance company. The coincidence of these innovations prefigures the parallel development and interwoven relationships between invention, building insurance, and legislation that underlie the production of architecture today. Industrialization brought new threats to the city (e.g. electricity, speed, explosives) while also dramatically increasing the scale of historical perils (e.g. flood, fire, theft). In turn, these threats gave rise to a field of new products, accessory to conventional building. In their early forms, the automatic sprinkler, exterior fire escape, panic bar, emergency light, and theft alarm were, like Franklin’s lightning rod, ready for production and deployment on a large scale, without definitive spatial identity, and suitable for use in new or existing construction. Negotiating the thresholds between the developing infrastructures of the city and its private spaces (as insured and legally defined), these devices may be understood collectively as a crumple zone intended not to prevent architectural emergency but to absorb, limit, and contain its effects.

Abstract:
Over the past decade, interest in performance-based fire protection has increased within the nuclear industry. In support of this growing interest, in 1997 the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) developed a long-range plan to develop/improve data and tools needed to support Risk-Informed/Performance-Based fire protection. This plan calls for continued improvement in collection and use of information obtained from fire events at nuclear plants. The data collection process has the objectives of improving the insights gained from such data and reducing the uncertainty in fire risk and fire modeling methods in order to make them a more reliable basis for performance based fire protection programs. In keeping with these objectives, EPRI continues to collect, review and analyze fire events in support of the nuclear industry. EPRI collects these records in cooperation with the Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL), by compiling public fire event reports and by direct solicitation of U.S. nuclear facilities. EPRI fire data collection project is based on the principle that the understanding of history is one of the cornerstones of improving fire protection technology and practice. Therefore, the goal has been to develop and maintain a comprehensive database of fire events with flexibility to support various aspects of fire protection engineering. With more than 1850 fire records over a period of three decades and 2400 reactor years, this is the most comprehensive database of nuclear power industry fire events in existence today. In general, the frequency of fires in the U.S. commercial nuclear industry remains constant. In few cases, e.g., transient fires and fires in BWR offgas/recombiner systems, where either increasing or decreasing trends are observed, these trends tend to slow after 1980. The key issues in improving quality of the data remain to be consistency of the recording and reporting of fire events and difficulties in collection of records. EPRI has made significant progress towards improving the quality of the fire events data through use of multiple collection methods as well as its review and verification. To date EPRI has used this data to develop a generic fire ignition frequency model for U.S. nuclear power industry (Ref. 1, 4 and 5) as well as to support other models in support of EPRI Fire Risk Methods such as a cable fire manual suppression model. EPRI will continue its effort to collect and analyze operating data to support risk informed/performance based fire safety engineering, including collection and analysis of impairment data for fire protection systems and features. This paper provides details on the collection and application of fire events to risk informed/performance based fire protection. The paper also provides valuable insights into improving both collection and use of fire events data.

Abstract:
This work was supported by the Agency for Research and Development under the contract no. APVV-17-0217.Every year fires cause big damage to society, property, environment, buildings and infrastructure and pose a threat to life and health of persons in endangered areas. In most cases arson serves as insurance fraud or cover up any crime (e.g. robbery, embezzlement). However, there may be other reasons, e.g. in the case of the Commission of the European Union, the use of the product in envy, hatred, threats, blackmail, competitive struggle. Or social, political, or ethnic differences. In several cases, arson was used as a so-called 'arson attack'. The false flag, that is, the arsonist used the fire to accuse his enemy and took advantage of the wave of recourse that subsequently was raised against him. The circumstances of the cause and the fire are under investigation. After extinguishing a fire, it is standard procedure to seek and then either confirm, refute or further examine the possibility of intentional formation. In most countries of the world, arson is treated as a crime and seen as harming a stranger or a threat to life.

Abstract:
This project explores workforce and occupations within the highway, street, and bridge construction industries (NAICS 237310) in Indiana. There are five specific deliverable comprised of three data reports, one policy document, and a website. The first data report includes an assessment of the workforce based on the eight-part framework, which are industry, occupations, job postings, hard-to-fill jobs, Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP), GAP Analysis, compatibility, and automation. The report defines a cluster followed by a detailed analysis of the occupations, skills, job postings, etc., in the NAICS 237310 industry in Indiana. The report makes use of specialized labor market databases, such as the Economic Modeling Specialists International (EMSI), CHMURA JobsEQ, etc. The analysis is based only on the jobs covered under the unemployment insurance or the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) data. The second data report analyzes jobs to jobs flows to and from the construction industry in Indiana, with a particular emphasis on the Great Recession, by utilizing the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data. The third data report looks into the equal employment opportunity or Section 1391 and 1392 data for Indiana and analyzes specific characteristics of that data. The policy report includes a set of recommendations for workforce development for INDOT and a summary of the three data reports. The key data on occupations within the NAICS 237310 are provided in an interactive website. The website provides a data dashboard for individual INDOT Districts. The policy document recommends steps for development of the highways, streets and bridges construction workforce in INDOT Districts.

Abstract:
Objectives. Survival rates for pediatric cancer have dramatically increased since the 1970s, and the population of childhood cancer survivors (CCS) exceeds 500,000 in the United States. Cancer during childhood and related treatments lead to long-term health problems, many of which are poorly understood. These problems can be amplified by suboptimal survivorship care. This report provides an overview of the existing evidence and forthcoming research relevant to disparities and barriers for pediatric cancer survivorship care, outlines pending questions, and offers guidance for future research. Data sources. This Technical Brief reviews published peer-reviewed literature, grey literature, and Key Informant interviews to answer five Guiding Questions regarding disparities in the care of pediatric survivors, barriers to cancer survivorship care, proposed strategies, evaluated interventions, and future directions. Review methods. We searched research databases, research registries, and published reviews for ongoing and published studies in CCS to October 2020. We used the authors’ definition of CCS; where not specified, CCS included those diagnosed with any cancer prior to age 21. The grey literature search included relevant professional and nonprofit organizational websites and guideline clearinghouses. Key Informants provided content expertise regarding published and ongoing research, and recommended approaches to fill identified gaps. Results. In total, 110 studies met inclusion criteria. We identified 26 studies that assessed disparities in survivorship care for CCS. Key Informants discussed subgroups of CCS by race or ethnicity, sex, socioeconomic status, and insurance coverage that may experience disparities in survivorship care, and these were supported in the published literature. Key Informants indicated that major barriers to care are providers (e.g., insufficient knowledge), the health system (e.g., availability of services), and payers (e.g., network adequacy); we identified 47 studies that assessed a large range of barriers to survivorship care. Sixteen organizations have outlined strategies to address pediatric survivorship care. Our searches identified only 27 published studies that evaluated interventions to alleviate disparities and reduce barriers to care. These predominantly assessed approaches that targeted patients. We found only eight ongoing studies that evaluated strategies to address disparities and barriers. Conclusions. While research has addressed disparities and barriers to survivorship care for childhood cancer survivors, evidence-based interventions to address these disparities and barriers to care are sparse. Additional research is also needed to examine less frequently studied disparities and barriers and to evaluate ameliorative strategies in order to improve the survivorship care for CCS.
