Expanding Horizons, April 2022

Risks is an international, scholarly, peer-reviewed, open access journal for research and studies on insurance and financial risk management. An upcoming special issue is aimed at bringing novel research on quantitative modeling and empirical findings in finance and risk management to a broad audience of academic researchers, industry professionals and regulators.

The editors for this issue are Tianyang Wang, ASA, PhD (Colorado State University); Jing Ai, PhD (University of Hawaii); and Xiufang Li, PhD (Nankai University). We welcome submissions that represent original, high-quality theoretical and empirical research, as well as policy-oriented research papers, that confer clear-cut findings to strengthen the knowledge of all areas of finance, risk management and insurance. These include investment decision making, risk prediction, asset credit evaluation and fraud detection, among others.

We especially encourage research submissions that focus on methodologies, technologies and applications that have been profoundly transforming the financial markets and, in turn, present new challenges and opportunities to financial and risk management research. These include but are not limited to FinTech/InsurTech, AI/machine learning/big data, decentralized finance/risk management/insurance and climate/green finance/insurance.
