This course serves as, partly, a Capstone course for the Actuarial Science major and one of the tracks in the Risk Management & Insurance Certificate, but also presents some flexibility for focusing on timely and relevant topics in the field. As such, there is an expectation that some topics will change over time to reflect current issues of importance. Nevertheless, the general thematic structure of this course is to examine risk management and insurance ‘in action.’ On the risk management side of the course this will mean examining risk management program operations and will entail some case study activity. Such topics could include problems in managing work-related injury; managing risks in global firms; and alternative risk financing. On the insurance side of the course, the intention is to consider insurance industry challenges and problems. Such topics could include the effects of climate change on the insurance contract; insuring driverless vehicles; and an examination of the reinsurance sector. Prerequisites: ACSC 220 or FINC 2XX (crosslisted course equiv. to ACSC 220) and either ACSC 264 and STAT 313 or FINC 301, FINC 302, and FINC 303

This course introduces and details the subject of Employee Benefits. In the United States a wide-range of insurance and insurance-related coverages are provided through employers. As such, anyone studying insurance is well-served to understand the many key differences that arise in the provision of insurance to groups of employees. Indeed, a central feature of this course is the investigation of the Group Insurance concept, where underwriting focuses not on the individual but on the group as a whole. Government regulation of employee benefit programs, while having some common features with insurance regulation generally, has a number of additional features—especially at the national government level. Additionally, the course will focus on the specifics of group life and disability insurance, group health insurance, group long term care, savings and investment programs, and—to complete the picture—some treatment of a wide-range of newer programs—wellness, group legal, childcare, and more. This course will serve as a particularly meaningful introduction to individuals that might aspire to work in the Human Resources area of an organization, in addition to students interested in working for insurance companies that specialize in group insurance.
