Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1851, delves into the burgeoning world of life insurance in the United States, a field then grappling with rapid growth and the perils of reckless speculation. The author, a seasoned actuary, offers a comprehensive analysis of the various types of life insurance companies operating at the time, from proprietary to mutual, and exposes the shortcomings of practices like issuing dividends that outstrip a company's actual reserves. He meticulously outlines the principles of actuarial science, emphasizing the crucial role of compound interest and the need for accurate mortality tables, warning against the dangers of underestimating the cost of risk. Through detailed calculations and real-world examples, the author debunks common misconceptions about the nature of life insurance profits and the true cost of offering high dividends. The book's insights into the early American life insurance market provide a valuable glimpse into the industry's evolution and the enduring importance of actuarial principles in ensuring long-term financial stability. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780260237545_0
