Scandinavian Actuarial Journal is a journal for actuarial sciences that deals, in theory and application, with mathematical methods for insurance and related matters. The bounds of actuarial mathematics are determined by the area of application rather than by uniformity of methods and techniques. Therefore, a paper of interest to Scandinavian Actuarial Journal may have its theoretical basis in probability theory, statistics, operations research, numerical analysis, computer science, demography, mathematical economics, or any other area of applied mathematics; the main criterion is that the paper should be of specific relevance to actuarial applications.It is the hope of the editors that the journal can promote progress in the development of actuarial methodology and the proliferation of established methods in practical actuarial work. A special workshop section is intended to stimulate cooperative efforts between practitioners and theoreticians to solve real-life actuarial problems. The workshop will be open for papers at any level of theoretical preparation, from mere descriptions of practical problems with pleas for help, via discussions and tentative solutions, to complete theoretical treatment of these problems. The journal also publishes survey articles and empirical studies. All articles are refereed.

斯堪的納維亞精算學雜志是一本精算學雜志，在理論和應用上，涉及保險和相關事務的數學方法。精算數學的邊界是由應用領域決定的，而不是由方法和技術的一致性決定的。因此，斯堪的納維亞精算學雜志感興趣的一篇論文可能具有概率論、統計學、運籌學、數值分析、計算機科學、人口學、數學經濟學或任何其他應用數學領域的理論基礎;主要的標準是，該文件應與精算應用具有特定的相關性。編輯們希望，該雜志能夠促進精算方法的發展和在實際精算工作中已有方法的擴散。一個特別講習班旨在鼓勵從業者和理論家之間的合作努力，以解決現實生活中的精算問題。講習班將開放給任何理論準備階段的論文，從僅僅描述實際問題并請求幫助，通過討論和試探性的解決辦法，到完成對這些問題的理論處理。該雜志還發表調查文章和實證研究。所有文章都要參考。
