We welcomed this year several participants from abroad, indicating that this event is becoming to be known internationally. This contactforum aims to bring together young researchers, in particular Ph.D. students and Postdocs, working in the field of Financial and Actuarial Mathematics to discuss recent developments in the theory of mathematical finance and insurance and its application to current issues faced by the industry and to identify the substantive problems confronting academic researchers and finance professionals. We provide a forum for the discussion of advances within this field. In particular, we want to promote the exchange of ideas between practitioners and academics. Renowned practitioners were programmed as main speakers in order to give them a forum to talk about the needs, the problems, the hot topics in their fields. The invited paper about risk measures is included in these transactions. We thank all our speakers and discussants (Jasper Anderluh, Katrien Antonio, Griselda Deelstra, Henrik Jönsson, Nele Vandaele, Maarten Van Wieren, David Vyncke), for their enthusiasm and their interesting contributions which made this day a great success. We are also extremely grateful to our sponsors: the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and Arts, and Scientific Research Network “Fundamental Methods and Techniques in Mathematics” of the Fund for Scientific Research - Flanders. They made it possible to spend the day in a very agreeable and inspiring environment. We plan a two day international event for the next meeting in 2008 with the focus on the interplay between finance and insurance.
