Presentation
The main objective of the Chair is to promote a series of research, dissemination and knowledge transfer activities, and organise social activities, in the area of population ageing. The focus is statistical, economic and actuarial analysis of phenomena relating to the increasing longevity of individuals (including dignity of life in old age; health and the need for care for elderly people; the analysis of the bioactuarial track of a person over their life; mobility of old people; and demographics and ageing in deserted areas, among others). Based on development in the economic, statistical and actuarial field, the Chair is clearly multidisciplinary and is centred on promoting research and knowledge transfer in the various fields associated with the study of economics promoted by the Research Group on Risk in Finance and Insurance of the UB.
