1. COURSE DESCRIPTION
The global insurance industry is valued at about 5 trillion dollars. Insurance impacts all of us in multiple
ways for example a professional might have car insurance, health insurance, life insurance and a ULIP
investment. The CoViD-19 pandemic has witnessed the growing importance on health and life
insurance. Simultaneously, understanding business interruption risk and related insurance has become
an important theme as the world struggles to revive. The advent of artificial intelligence has created an
interest in risk management through machines learning and deep learning. Therefore, this course has
industry relevance and is positioned for managers and leaders who are facing challenges in the new
world and are looking for solutions to eliminate, mitigate and transfer risk. The industry in India is
growing and due to poor insurance penetration, there is huge scope for further development.
The insurance industry includes – life insurance, non-life insurance, health insurance and pensions.
Capital, Data and Resources are the three key elements in this industry. In this course the students will
get an overview of different lines of insurance. The course will focus on providing the analytical tools to
price life and non-life insurance. Students will learn about different capital modelling techniques and the
effective use of capital to meet solvency requirements. The role of artificial intelligence and the evolving
InsureTech space will be covered.
