Dr. Xenos specializes in Actuarial Science with a particular focus on Insurance Economics, Health Economics, and Productivity Analysis. His research examines the efficiency and productivity of public and private insurance and health institutions, methods of compensation for medical professions, morbidity risk management, social security system sustainability, and insurance portfolio solvency. His work bridges theoretical actuarial science with practical applications in healthcare and social security systems, particularly in the context of economic crises and austerity measures.
