10. Models: Evaluation by Guus Boender (†)
Pension conference The Netherlands - Presentation by Jos Berkemeijer - Symetrics©2015 10April 2, 2015
Source: De Actuaris : Uitspraken Guus Boender (1955 – 2014)
• We have the bad luck that this crisis since 2009
fell outside the range of thousand
• A model cannot take into account things
that have not yet happened
• Non-normal distributions
occur more frequently
• The probability tail is thicker
• We need more data
• Never consider models as absolute truth
