Editor's Comments 2007.2
ARCH is an informal electronic publication presenting current actuarial research which the Education and Research Section of the Society of Actuaries offers to members and friends of the actuarial community. Unlike most professional presentations, ARCH is nonrefereed. ARCH has as its primary goal speedy dissemination of current thinking and aids to research rather than the publishing of thoroughly edited papers. While primary emphasis is on distribution of short notes or papers on specific research topics ARCH also acts as a clearing house for items embodied in letters between researchers, useful computer programs (or announcements of the availability of such programs), translations of appropriate material in foreign languages, problems, solutions, etc.
Briefly, our editorial policy is as follows. The Education and Research Section of the Society of Actuaries will not be responsible for statements made or opinions expressed in the articles, criticisms, and discussions in this publication. Editorial work is held to a minimum. We have balanced a normal desire to present reasonably worthwhile and cohesive material with our wish to allow anyone the opportunity of circulating his or her ideas to our readership. However, the editor reserves the right to cut, condense or rearrange information and can not guarantee publication of either solicited or unsolicited material. In addition, authors are requested to preface their papers with a brief abstract (100 words or less). All items will be published on the SOA Web site with the name of the contributor and the responsibility for the accuracy of all published material rests solely with the contributor.
Manuscripts should be prepared as a Word document or in Adobe Acrobat PDF format and submitted electronically. Prior to submission please proofread your manuscript for typographical errors, and set the margins to one inch on each side.
