Swiss citizen
Alois Gisler had
studied mathematics
at ETH in Zürich and he had written his
PhD-thesis with Prof. Hans Bühlmann.
After his studies he had been working for nearly 30 years as a full
practicing
actuary at AXA-Winterthur Insurance Company. He has a broad practical
experience in nearly all actuarial fields of a direct insurer, in
pricing,
reserving, reporting, solvency, securitisation, etc. He had been the
head of
actuarial non-life and also the appointed actuary for AXA-Winterthur
Insurance
Company and for Winterthur-ARAG, legal-protection Insurance-Company. In
his
function as head of actuarial non-life, he was responsible for pricing,
reserving, actuarial reporting and other actuarial services. As
AXA-Winterthur
is the market leader non-life in Switzerland, Alois Gisler was engaged
in all
major actuarial topics and developments in the Swiss market-place. In
particular
he was heavily involved in the development of the Swiss Solvency Test,
where
the model for the insurance risk non-life bears his signature.
Besides being a full practising actuary Alois Gisler has always kept
close
contact to actuarial science. He had been coeditor of the ASTIN-Bulletin
during
10 years. Since 1992 he has been a lecturer in actuarial science and
since 2002
a professor at ETH. He has written many articles, mainly in credibility
theory.
At mid 2009 Prof.
Alois Gisler went
on pension at AXA-Winterthur in order to have more time for research and
lecturing at ETH.
