Get out of this forum, pls./Didn't you know that once you propose an answer to a question, as a courtesy, you should not be commenting on other proposals?/Unwritten ProZ rules, alth. not explicit! You lack manners!/Could easily comment on yours, but won't

Thank you Phil; Yes (although among his languages pairs, French is the primary; I am not suggesting either that he does not understand Spanish); he can say what he likes neutral/disagree but justify it & not be rude about it; not 1st time (fin. expert???)

Department of financial economics, actuarial science applied to economics, and econometrics
actuarial science is not part of economics; which is why I say actuarial science applied to economcs
economics is part of statistics, but is oriented towards quantifying economic data

Note from asker:
| Hi there. I am sorry I disagree with your answer. It simply cannot be an equivalent to what I am looking for. I am also sorry about the Taña's rebuke, totally out of place |
Discussion
Actuarial science can be applied to financial economics (insurance, retirement etc...); but there is no field of economics called actuarial econonmics. If I am wrong, show me one economist specialized in that field.
