Mario Ghossoub is an Associate Professor of Actuarial Science at the University of Waterloo and a Sun Life Fellow in International Actuarial Science. His current research is focused on the study of equilibria, efficient allocations, and risk-sharing in markets. He specializes in understanding the effects of non-standard preferences of agents, including ambiguity and probability weighting, as well as the implications of non-linear pricing models like Choquet pricing. His work examines how market frictions, such as transaction costs, influence the structure of Pareto optimal allocations and equilibria. Ghossoub's research also considers practical applications in specific risk-sharing markets, including centralized insurance markets and decentralized risk-sharing structures such as peer-to-peer insurance.
Includes fields like Clinical, Cognitive, Developmental, and Industrial/Organizational Psychology.
