Banking and insurance law
A.A. 2024/2025
Obiettivi formativi
The aim of the course is to present a few topics in banking and insurance law in which mathematical reasoning (probabilistic thinking, financial and actuarial mathematics) plays an important role. The student shall demonstrate that has acquired a basic knowledge of the fundamental institutes of banking and insurance law (and their mathematical aspects) which will be dealt with during the course.
Risultati apprendimento attesi
- Understanding the basic notions of probability such as the definition of probability, conditional probability, Bayes theorem
- Understanding basic notions of financial mathematics such as time value of the money, interest rates, present value, internal rate of return, actuarial value
- Understanding the relevance of the aforementioned concepts to judicial applications in banks and insurance companies
- Being able to think and compute in probabilistic terms and to perform basic financial calculations
Furthermore, at the end of the course the student who has profitably learned the subject will have a thorough knowledge of the topics of the course, with the acquisition of a method of reasoning suitable to deal with specific and complex legal issues in banking and insurance law.

Programma
With reference to legal issues the course shall deal with the following topics:
- Theory of banking
- The Basel committee
- CRR and CRD
- Capital regulation
- Liquidity regulation on banking and insurance perspective
- Resolution mechanism
- Governance and AI
- The protection of deposits scheme
- AI and Insurance
- Sustainability in the insurance and banking sectors
With reference to the mathematical module, the following topics will be covered:
- Basic concepts of probability: events and operations among them, probabilities and their properties, disjoint events, independent events. Conditional probability and Bayes theorem.
- Basic concepts of financial mathematics: interest rates, time value of the money, net present value, internal rate of return.
- Basic concepts of actuarial mathematics: modelling the duration of human life, probabilities of life and death, computation of actuarial values

Prerequisiti
For the mathematical module, a basic knowledge of logic, probability and algebra will be useful, as required for the admission to the programme.
Metodi didattici
Traditional frontal teaching, exercises, analysis of case studies. Attendance of lectures is not mandatory but is strongly recommended.
Materiale di riferimento
For the juridical part, lecture notes and other materials in English will be given by the teacher.
For the mathematical part, lecture notes in English will be given by the teacher. A nice textbook (in Italian) that covers very well a large part of the program is "Metodi matematici, statistici e finanziari per giuristi" by Mauro D'Amico and Lorenzo Peccati.

Modalità di verifica dell’apprendimento e criteri di valutazione
Oral interrogation. The final grade will be the average of the grades of the juridical module and of the mathematical module.
