Journal of Risk and Insurance (JRI)
Journal Descriptions
The Journal of Risk and Insurance (JRI) is one of the longest‑running and most prestigious scholarly journals in the fields of insurance economics and risk management, first appearing in 1933 and adopting its present title in 1964. Published quarterly by Wiley on behalf of the American Risk and Insurance Association (ARIA), JRI serves as the flagship outlet for scholarly research that advances both theoretical and empirical understanding of risk and insurance markets. The journal publishes rigorous peer‑reviewed research articles that bridge academic inquiry with practical relevance, influencing markets, regulation, and corporate practice worldwide. Its scope encompasses diverse topics, including the economics of insurance pricing and underwriting, the role of risk in financial decision‑making, moral hazard and adverse selection, behavioral research in risk, and the impact of regulation on insurance markets. JRI’s interdisciplinary approach draws on economics, finance, actuarial science, and behavioral studies to address complex questions about how risk is assessed, mitigated, and transferred. Articles often feature sophisticated quantitative analysis, carefully designed empirical studies, and thought‑provoking theoretical frameworks that appeal to scholars, practitioners, and policymakers. Over decades, the journal has shaped scholarly conversations and contributed foundational insights to the study of risk and insurance. Its association with ARIA further ensures that it reflects emerging priorities of the research and practitioner community in risk management, making it a cornerstone publication in this academic domain.
