The two main lecture course topics are:
· Counterparty risk and models of default time (Monique Jeanblanc, Université d’Evry)
· Life insurance and long term interest rate modelling (Nicole El Karoui, Ecole Polytechnique)
These lecture courses will be supplemented by tutorial sessions.
There will be guest speakers: Francesca Biagini (LMU Munich), José Manuel Corcuera Valverde (University of Barcelona), Angelos Dassios (London School of Economics), Henrik Hult (KTH Stockholm), Vladimir Kaishev (City University London), Goran Peskir (University of Manchester).

LMS-EPSRC Short Instructional Course - Common Themes in Financial and Actuarial Mathematics
Monday, 15 April, 2013 - 09:00 to Friday, 19 April, 2013 - 17:00
Women in Mathematics Two-Day Event
Thursday, 18 April, 2013 - 10:30 to Friday, 19 April, 2013 - 16:30
The next Women in Mathematics Day will be a two-day event on 18-19th April and will be held at the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge. Sessions will include talks by women mathematicians at different career stages and a poster session.
The organisers would be very grateful if all members could encourage women mathematicians, particularly students (including final year undergraduates) and those at an early stage of their career, to attend this meeting.
Any postgraduates, postdocs or research assistants interested in giving a talk or presenting a poster at the meeting should contact Beatrice Pelloni (b.pelloni@reading.ac.uk) by 15th March 2013.
The event provides an opportunity to meet and talk with women who are active and successful in mathematics. While this is an occasion particularly for women active in mathematics to get together, men are certainly not excluded from this event.
To register please visit the INI website by 1st April 2013. (Late registrations for places may be still be accepted, subject to availability.)
The day is free for students and £5 for all others, payable on the day.
Limited funds are available to help with the travel costs of students attending the event. Further details are available from Katy Henderson (womeninmaths@lms.ac.uk).
There will be a dinner on the evening of 18th April at Murray Edwards College, funded by the Cambridge mathematics departments and lunch on both days will be funded by the LMS. Bed and breakfast accommodation will be available at Murray Edwards College at a cost of £69.75 per night (or a reduced rate for those willing to share). The INI will book accommodation if requested on the registration form.
The Women in Mathematics Day is kindly supported by the Clay Mathematics Institute, the Isaac Newton Institute, the DPMMS and the DAMTP at Cambridge.
GPS Workshop
Monday, 22 April, 2013 - 10:30 to 16:00
ICMS, Edinburgh
This workshop is designed to provide departments with knowledge and tools they can use to improve recruitment and retention of women in mathematics. This may include making an application for Athena SWAN status. The workshop is particularly for departments that have not sent representatives to previous GPS Workshops - eg the one held in London in November 2012, although those who have previously attended are welcome if they think it would be useful to them.
This event is supported by the London Mathematical Society and the Edinburgh Mathematical Society.
Registration for the workshop is through the ICMS website
