INDIA Actuarial Society of India: Transactions We welcome this issue of a new actuarial journal. VORA,V. H. and MARKAN,D. D. ‘Mortality of Indian Assured Lives’, pp. 1–63. The mortality experience investigated in this paper relates to the year 1961. It covers, of course, the lives assured in the nationalized Life Insurance Corporation of India and thus represents the first nationwide mortality experience to be published. VIJAYKAR, I. R. The Actuary in India, pp. 64–108. The article contains a number of comparisons between the Indian members of the Institute of Actuaries and the general body of British actuaries. The general conclusion is that opportunities outside the traditional fields of the actuary in India are not sufficiently developed to compensate for the reduction in the scope for a Life Office actuary following nationalization.

ITALY Giornale dell’Istituto Italiano degli Attuari, 27, 1964 FRANCKX,E. Les problèmes globaux en assurance vie, pp. 1–11. A study of the total claims payments from a life assurance fund during each accounting period considered as a random variable. This paper amplifies Franckx’s remarks when he addressed the Institute. (J.I.A. 89, 50.) TEDESCHI, B. Su un particolare ‘cammino a caso’, pp. 12–23. Within a given rectangle, a succession P0, P1, P2... of points is chosen at random, each choice being independent of previous choices. A point P moves from the first position P0 towards P1 with a constant velocity V; it then continues with the same velocity towards P2 and so forth. The article discusses the distribution function of the position of the point at time t. PISTOIA,A. Qualche considerazione sull’andamento della produzione vita nelle diverse ripartizioni territoriali, pp. 24–50. DE FERRA,C. Considerazioni sulle funzionl di utilità in connessione con la teoria del rischio, pp. 51–70. TORTORICI, P. Ancora sulla concavità della riserva matematica sfruttando il metodo dei coefficienti ausiliari, pp. 71–8. Compare the previous article (J.I.A. 90, 245). PIZZETTI,E. Premio di rischio e premio di risparmio, pp. 79–98. A study of the effect of lapses on the ceding company and the reassurer respectively. BOETTI,G. Una rappresentazione grafica per la determinazione del tipo di curva, tra le curve del sistema di Pearson, corrispondente a dati valori numerici dei momenti 3° e 4° delle distribuzioni, pp. 99–121. PIZETTI,E. La riassicurazione non proporzionale applicata al ramo vita, pp. 122–39. Derives numerical results for the stop loss premium for a simplified portfolio of temporary assurances. The theory rests on the assumption that the ‘true’ mortality of the group is known. GHIZZETTI,A. and ROMA,M. S. Calcolo di alcune probabilità relative alla suddivisione casuale di un segmento in n parti, pp. 140–50. DE FINETTI,B. Alcune osservazioni in tema di ‘suddivisionecasuale’, pp. 151–73. BRUNO,A. Sugli eventiparzialmente scambiabili, pp. 174–96. The notion of ‘partial exchangeability’ of events introduced by de Finetti is illustrated by a hypothetical case. Suppose a drug is tested on a number of patients, and its ‘success' can be recorded; on the hypotheses that the ‘success’is not associated with age, sex, etc., of the patients, the events (tests) are defined as ‘exchangeable’. If, however, the hypothesis is that the number of ‘successes’is different according to age and sex, then the events are ‘partially exchangeable’. The article studies the probability density function with three and four sub-groups of tests. MAYERSON, A. L. The uses of credibility in property insurance ratemaking, pp. 197–218. An account of the theory developed by the Casualty Actuarial Society. DE FINETTI,B. Sulla teoria della credibilità, pp. 219–31. A summary of the theory for Italian readers.
