<abstract>Late last year, Springer published "catastrophe modeling : a new approach to managing risk, "which analyzes how catastrophe models can be used for assessing and managing risks of extreme events. Spearheaded by Wharton School professor Howard Kunreuther, this book also draws upon the expertise of three leading catastrophe modeling firms -Risk Management solutions, Inc. ; AIR Worldwide Corporation; and EQECAT, inc. -to examine the role of catastrophe modeling in rate setting, portfolio management and risk financing. RM recently caught up with Kunreuther and his associates to discuss the book, what went into it, and catastrophe modeling in general</abstract>
