About FUR

The first FUR conference was held in Oslo in 1982 and was founded by Maurice Allais and Ole Hagen. Since then the FUR conferences have been held in Venice (1984), Aix-en-Provence (1986), Budapest (1988), Duke (1990), Paris (1992), Oslo (1994), Mons (1997), Marrakech (1999), Torino (2001), Paris (2004), Rome (2006) and Barcelona (2008).

We are proud to host the fourteenth FUR conference in Newcastle upon Tyne in 2010. FUR is truly interdisciplinary, which is reflected by the fact that the scientific committee includes experts in the decision sciences from Economics, Management, Psychology, Risk Management and Insurance, Finance, Mathematics, Philosophy and Statistics.
