AS Lab

The Actuarial Science in Finance and Insurance Research Lab (AS Lab) is a unit specializing in researching mathematical and statistical methods to assess and manage risks in insurance, finance and related fields. With a team of experienced experts, the research department focuses on developing quantitative models to forecast risks, optimize financial strategies and support decision making for businesses and organizations. In addition to research and application orientation, AS Lab was also established with the purpose of helping students/enthusiasts have the opportunity to study, research, and participate in practical work related to Actuarial Science.

The Actuarial Science Laboratory brings together researchers in the fields of: probability modeling, statistics in finance and insurance, mathematical theory and tools in finance and insurance (stochastic analysis, optimization, statistics, stochastic simulation). For more details, please refer to the list of research topics and scientific backgrounds of the members.

Lab members also participate in teaching in the fields/programs of the National Economics University, especially the Actuarial & Risk Management (Actuary) belongs to the Department of Economic Mathematics, College of Technology, and also guides graduate students at the Lab.
