Statistical techniques can be used to address new situations. This
is important in a rapidly evolving risk management and financial
world. Analysts with a strong statistical background understand
that a large data set can represent a treasure trove of information
to be mined and can yield a strong competitive advantage. This book
provides budding actuaries and financial analysts with a foundation
in multiple regression and time series. Readers will learn about
these statistical techniques using data on the demand for
insurance, lottery sales, foreign exchange rates, and other
applications. Although no specific knowledge of risk management or
finance is presumed, the approach introduces applications in which
statistical techniques can be used to analyze real data of
interest. In addition to the fundamentals, this book describes
several advanced statistical topics that are particularly relevant
to actuarial and financial practice, including the analysis of
longitudinal, two-part (frequency/severity), and fat-tailed data.
Datasets with detailed descriptions, sample statistical software
scripts in "R" and "SAS," and tips on writing a statistical report,
including sample projects, can be found on the book s Web site:
