Abstracts and Reviews

Organization of the Abstracts and Reviews section Each abstract published in the Abstracts and Reviews section is characterized by the following features: Serial number By means of the serial number a reader will be able to locate an abstract in the ‘Abstracts and Reviews’ section of this journal. The first two figures of the serial number indicate the volume number; the third is the issue number. Thus, serial number 012054 refers to the 54th abstract of the 2nd issue of volume 1. Subject and insurance branch codes These codes provide a first impression of the content of the paper which is abstracted and the specific branch of insurance it deals with. The key to the codes can be found below. The subject codes themselves are subdivided into two major categories: insurance mathematics (codes starting with M) and insurance economics (codes starting with E). The B-codes are insurance branch codes. For a given abstract, the codes are listed in order of decreasing importance, subject code(s) first, then branch code(s).

Keywords To further identify the content of a paper, one or several keywords are given to its abstract, in order of decreasing importance. The keywords are used for indexing purposes in the keyword index. The section Abstracts and Reviews is organized into five parts. These are ‘Abstracts and Reviews’, the Subject Index, the Insurance Branch Index, the Keyword Index and the Author Index. In the ‘Abstract and Reviews’ portion, the abstracts and reviews themselves are placed in order of their serial number. All information on a given paper such as title, English translation of title, author’s name and address, subject and insurance branch codes and keywords can be found in this section. In the Indexes, reference to an abstract is made by means of its serial number. In some indexes additional information, such as title or other codes, is given.
