Abstract: Statistical research in the science of insurance. This article brings a survey of some of the statistical problems, solved or unsolved, encountered in the science of insurance. Whereas life insurance rests on a fairly sound basis, the foundations of fire insurance still involve some speculative arguments, owing to lack of data and to the irregular influence of meteorological and economic factors. The insurance against hospital costs has to take into account the fact that the length of stay in hospital is not independent of the amount insured. These various problems are briefly discussed.
