Abstract:
Searching for the optimal saving strategy is often tied with the life-cycle strategies where only the age of a saver is considered for setting the allocation profile between equities and bonds. Our article contributes to the debate by looking at the performance and adequacy risks arising from applying age-based saving strategies for savers in funded pension schemes. As many studies have proven the shift of the risk onto savers in defined contribution pension schemes under various saving strategies, we contribute to the debate by providing simulations of expected accumulated savings via funded pension scheme under the various life-cycle income profiles and existence of unemployment risk. Using the resampling simulation technique, we compare the fixed and age-based strategies of three different agents with various life-cycle income paths and different unemployment risk. We compare the expected amount of savings and calculate relative indicators comparing the expected monthly benefits, income replacement rate. We look closely on the impact of unemployment on the value of savings and calculate the unemployment factor explaining the value of savings lost due to the periods of unemployment. By combining life-cycle income functions of individuals with different education level and unemployment risk, we show that decisions of implementing low risk saving strategies are suboptimal and lead to a substantial decrease in replacement ratios not only for higher income cohorts but especially for the lowest ones. At the same time, we prove that employing low risk saving strategy leads to the increase of adequacy risk especially driven by the unemployment risk that is higher for lower education individuals. We conclude that age-based life-cycle saving strategies, where the remaining saving horizon is the only factor defining the allocation profile is not the optimal saving strategy and other factors should be considered as well when searching for optimal saving strategy.

Abstract:
This paper proposes two mixed models to study a consumer?s optimal saving in the presence of two types of risk: income risk and background risk. In the first model, income risk is represented by a fuzzy number and background risk by a random variable. In the second model, income risk is represented by a random variable and background risk by a fuzzy number. For each model, three notions of precautionary savings are defined as indicators of the extra saving induced by income and background risk on the consumer?s optimal choice. In conclusion, we can characterize the conditions that allow for extra saving relative to optimal saving under certainty, even when a certain component of risk is modelled using fuzzy numbers.

Abstract:
This study investigates the intricate relationship between savings, investment, risk, and opportunities in contemporary financial landscapes. With financial markets becoming increasingly complex and interconnected, understanding the dynamics of savings and investment has become paramount for individuals, businesses, and policymakers alike. The first part of the study delves into the concept of savings, examining the various motivations behind saving behavior and the factors influencing individuals' decisions to save. It explores traditional saving instruments such as savings accounts, as well as newer forms such as robo-advisors and digital wallets, highlighting the evolving nature of saving practices in the digital age. Moving on to investment, the study elucidates the diverse array of investment vehicles available to investors, ranging from stocks and bonds to real estate and alternative assets. It analyzes the risk-return tradeoff inherent in different investment options and discusses strategies for constructing well-diversified investment portfolios tailored to investors' risk preferences and financial goals. Finally, the study identifies emerging opportunities in the savings and investment landscape, including technological innovations such as blockchain technology and peer-to- peer lending platforms, which are reshaping traditional financial systems and offering new avenues for wealth accumulation and capital deployment. By synthesizing theoretical insights with empirical evidence, this study provides valuable insights into the complex interplay between savings, investment, risk, and opportunities, offering practical recommendations for individuals

Abstract:
We examine how institutional saving mechanisms influence retirement saving decisions under bounded rationality and income risk. Using a life-cycle experiment with habit formation and loss aversion, we test mandatory and voluntary binding savings under deterministic and stochastic income. Voluntary commitment improves saving performance only when income is predictable; under uncertainty, it fails to improve performance. Mandatory savings do not raise total saving, as participants reduce voluntary contributions. These results emphasize the role of income smoothing in enabling behavioral interventions to improve long-term financial outcomes.

Abstract:
The popularity of KiwiSaver, combined with a demographic shift to an ageing population, will make savings invested in KiwiSaver an important source of income in retirement. To investigate the investment fund choices by KiwiSaver members a survey was circulated among 134 people; 87 KiwiSaver members, and 47 non-members. Respondents answered questions on their investment behavior, knowledge, and risk attitudes towards investment in general, and KiwiSaver. The results show investment in KiwiSaver tends to be conservative as a result of low levels of involvement, knowledge, and risk tolerance, and is more common among females. Investment in riskier growth funds is mostly by younger people and those who are risk tolerant as measured by the KiwiSaver Risk Profile.

Abstract:
The volatility of stock markets has important implications for investment decision making, financial stability and overall macroeconomic stability. This study examines the risk-return relationship as well as the behaviour of volatility of the South African equity markets using both aggregate, industrial level and sector level data. The study is divided into three parts. The first part investigates the behaviour of volatility in each of the industries, sectors and the benchmark series focussing on whether volatility is symmetric or asymmetric. Subsequently we investigate which, among the GARCH family of models appropriately captured the riskreturn relationship under which distributional assumption. The second part examines the riskreturn relationship on the SA stock market. The third part examines the long term trend of volatility and whether volatility significantly increases during financial crises and during major global shocks. The GARCH-M, EGARCH-M and TARCH-M models under the Gaussian, Student –t and the GED are used. The findings this study makes are as follows: firstly, there is no clear relationship between risk and return. Secondly, volatility is asymmetrical, implying that bad news has a greater effect on volatility than good news in the South African equity market. Thirdly, the TARCH-M model under the GED was found to be the most appropriate model. Fourthly, volatility increases during financial crises and major global shocks. Overall, volatility is generally not priced on the South African equity markets. Thus, both local and international investors need to consider other factors that influence returns such as skewness. The general increase in volatility during financial crises and major global shocks poses a major concern for policy makers as this may cause financial instability. Thus policy makers need to be mindful of the behaviour of volatility in the South African equity market in response to external shocks.

Abstract:
Economic uncertainty may affect significantly people’s behavior and hence macroeconomic variables. It is thus important to understand how people behave in presence of different kinds of economic risk. The present dissertation focuses therefore on the impact of the uncertainty in capital and labor income on the individual saving behavior. The underlying uncertain variables are here modeled as stochastic processes that each obey a specific stochastic differential equation, where uncertainty stems either from Poisson or Lévy processes. The results on the optimal behavior are derived by maximizing the individual expected lifetime utility. The first chapter is concerned with the necessary mathematical tools, the change-of-variables formula and the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation under Poisson uncertainty. We extend their possible field of application in order make them appropriate for the analysis of the dynamic stochastic optimization problems occurring in the following chapters and elsewhere. The second chapter considers an optimum-saving problem with labor income, where capital risk stems from asset prices that follow geometric L´evy processes. Chapter 3, finally, studies the optimal saving behavior if agents face not only risk but also uncertain spells of unemployment. To this end, we turn back to Poisson processes, which here are used to model properly the separation and matching process.

Abstract:
Energy efficiency and saving are the workhorses of the clean energy world. Although renewable energy technologies usually take the spotlight, they often work quietly in the background. The International Energy Agency estimates that in order to meet the goal to stay under the two-degree limit by 2035, investments in energy efficiency must represent at least half of all the global energy investments. While there is a broad agreement at the international level that there is an unexploited economic and technical energy efficiency potential, the measures implemented to improve the overall energy consumption haven’t been enough so far to stay on track to reach the targets and overcome all the barriers affecting the implementation of any energy efficiency or saving project. Energy Savings Companies (ESCos) could play a crucial role in providing technical and financial expertise for the project development. Through the implementation of an Energy Performance Contract, they can correctly evaluate the technologies to be applied, define a correct project business plan, intervene in the financing phase of the projects using their own- or third-party resources and even more, putting clarity in the division of responsibilities related to the project, thus allowing a correct risks management. In addition to the classic technical/financial tools, the potential of blockchain technology has recently been studied as a solution to speed up the implementation of projects, able to solve enormous impediments such as trust between the parties, the accuracy of efficiency estimates, potentially making the market for certificates of functional efficiency and central to developments in the sector.

Abstract:
Methods of assessing the intensity of plant growth in soils contaminated with elements of heavy metals as a result of military operations can provide important data regarding the migration, bioavailability of chemical compounds for plants, as a result of the formation of chemical compounds, which are key parameters for assessing the phytoremediation potential. The use of various methods of assessing the impact of heavy metals in the soil on plant growth can be evaluated not only based on the degree of environmental risk, but also predict the magnitude of the impact of a complex of chemical elements taking into account synergistic factors based on a statistical assessment based on the Pearson and Spearman complex. It was established that the mutual influence on the formation of active compounds in the soil significantly affects the intensity of plant growth and, accordingly, the negative correlation of the Pearson coefficient with the concentration of heavy metals in the soil for such as Cd, Cr and Ni. A positive correlation in the range of 0.75-0.89 is typical for soil samples with copper, lead, zinc and titanium. The impact of potentially toxic elements on the biometric parameters of plants was determined using germination tests. Slowdown of plant growth in the range of 5-10% was observed for soils with excess content of elements in the following sequence: zinc, lead, nickel, copper, chromium, cadmium and titanium.Statistical analysis was performed based on the results of biometric parameters of plants from germination tests. The application of the t-test (Shapiro-Wilk, p&gt;0.05) established statistical differences in the homogeneity of the dispersion and the normality of the distribution. Under the condition (p=0.05) of normal distribution, the Mann-Whitney test was used. At p&gt;0.05, the Brown-Forsyth test was used to analyze homogeneity of variances with a normal distribution. The use of the Welch test made it possible to establish the fact whether the distribution is normal for homogeneous and heterogeneous dispersion. Based on the Statistica 13.1 program, it was established that the Welch test data confirm the normal distribution of various types of variance.

Abstract:
Abstract Corrosion under insulation (CUI) is a major problem for petroleum and petrochemical process industries that affects the plant mechanical integrity and attacks assets. CUI can result in sudden and hazardous leaks (safety concern), and plant shutdowns with high losses of production (economical concern). Traditional detecting methods of CUI to cut a window in thermal insulation used to inspect visually, to measure the thickness, and then return thermal insulation back, giving high chance for water and moisture ingress, accelerating CUI, moreover big amount of scaffolding erection along with thermal insulation removal required. SHARQ (Eastern Petrochemical Company, one of SABIC companies) is pioneer to study CUI, evaluating many Non–Destructive techniques has proven Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) as the most effective technique in terms of integrity and cost optimization. Considering all available techniques, all aspects studied, such as range of applications, features, and limitations, it is concluded and verified to meet our inspection plan strategy needs. PEC does not require thermal insulation removal; optimize scaffolding erection, has a wide range of applications related to thickness, and temperature. PEC approved by international codes and standards (API) to meet RBI Meridium software requirements. The validation study results show cost savings of more than 50% compared to traditional thickness measurement methodology, moreover it reduces EHSS (Environment, Health, Safety, and Security) negative impact reduces the probability of safety incidents due to reducing labor, man-hours, and eliminating many associated activities with potential hazard and risk. PEC has high productivity, easily operated, and provides comprehensive and professional inspection report.

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Like all structural systems and elements, the post-tensioning systems that contribute so much to the bridge construction industry must be inspected periodically to confirm their condition and fitness for purpose. The primary cause of deterioration, of course, is corrosion, which is not easy to detect when the tendons are inside ducting, embedded within the concrete structure. In the case of bonded post-tensioning, in which the ducts through which the tendons run are grouted to provide corrosion protection as well as to transfer load along the tendon’s length, the risk of corrosion may be evaluated by investigating the presence of voids in the grouting in which moisture may collect. This paper provides an introduction to the use of non-destructive testing for this purpose, which enables post-tensioning systems to be inspected much more quickly and easily than with traditional inspection methods while also minimizing damage and saving costs.&lt;/p&gt;

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;The complexity of systems like bridges increases the risk of undetected damage, potentially causing catastrophic failures. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is essential for timely maintenance, reducing repair costs, and saving lives, but it faces measurement uncertainties due to aging or sensor failures. This paper presents a novel SHM framework to identify sensor malfunctions in the presence of structural damage, exclude faulty sensors, and maintain high confidence in a low level of epistemic uncertainty for measured and derived data. The framework evaluates consistency among data sources and considers combinatorics within the sensor network to collect evidence for levels of uncertainty. Sensor errors are mapped to α-levels, forming probability distributions to assess expected level of epistemic uncertainty and exclude compromised sensors based their contribution in reducing or increasing uncertainty. A realistic case study on a 9-meter steel lattice mast with synthetic data from a validated Finite Element model demonstrates the methodology.&lt;/p&gt;

Abstract:
This paper shows, using probit analysis, that low national savings increase the risk of macroeconomic crisis. Foreign savings are a poor substitute of national savings not only for domestic investment (Feldstein-Horioka result), but also for stability. It is found that deeper financial integration does not cure low investment and can improve the situation only to the extent that the risks of the foreign saving portfolio can be kept under control. Overall, a fundamental conclusion is that strong national savings are key for robust growth. Extending the probit analysis, the paper shows that the composition of foreign assets and liabilities matters substantially for portfolio risk and derives an index to assess the associated country risk.

Full text
Abstract:
Deeper financial integration is expected to enable low-saving countries to increase domestic investment but also to increase crisis risks by facilitating the accumulation of risky foreign liabilities. This paper explores the connections between financial integration, investment and crisis risk to assess this tradeoff. It confirms expectations but also finds that the accumulation of safe foreign assets that financial integration brings is an important risk offset that in many cases even eliminates the risk factor from the tradeoff altogether. Furthermore, it shows that the risk features of assets and liabilities depend on their type. Ultimately, whether international financial integration is in fact a reliable remedy for individual countries critically depends on the portfolio composition of their foreign assets and liabilities.

Abstract:
In October 2024, Royal Life Saving – Australia, in collaboration with Surf Life Saving Australia, Life Saving Victoria, and La Trobe University's Centre for Alcohol Policy Research and Sport and Social Impact, convened a drowning prevention workshop on two focus areas of the Australian Water Safety Strategy 2030: Alcohol and other drugs, and Risk taking. The workshop brought together researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to discuss current challenges, review relevant sections of the Australian Water Safety Strategy, and examine successful initiatives related to alcohol and other drugs, and risk taking behaviour. This workshop statement summarises the event and provides 10 action statements co-developed by the workshop participants.
