SERICS

Cyber risk, together with climate change and geopolitical risk, belongs to the category of so called “emerging risks” representing the new challenge for the safety assessment of corporations, the financial system and the economy as a whole. The common feature of these risks is that they refer to secular changes for which no past history is available, and no standard statistical risk measure can be applied.  This Halloween Conference is devoted to the analysis and discussion of frontier issues in the quantitative aspects of cyber risk impact in the financial landscape.
