'''Description'''
Summary of activity: A dice-rolling game, simulating 6 causes of loss (i.e. possible hazards) and how dependency affects the chance of loss exceeding a threshold.
 
Why is the training important: In short, because diversification is the basis of all (re)insurance, and correlation (a.k.a. dependency) destroys diversification. So, it’s fundamental.  If we get dependency wrong, we mis-estimate risk, mis-price risk etc ….

Description:

Aimed at people new to the field of catastrophe risk management or multi-hazard risk, this serious game simulates 6 possible hazards (i.e. causes of loss) and explores how hazard interactions and dependency between lines of business or regions can influence the chance of loss exceeding a threshold. The aim of the game is to explore correlation and dependencies to estimate losses.
