The prize fund consists of €10,000 and a commemorative medal, to be split between first and second prize as follows: €8,000 for first prize; €2,000 for second prize. In the event of a second prize not being awarded, €10,000 shall go to the winner of first prize.

The award is open to any persons interested in the international study of insurance and reinsurance.
