Some are in math or stats depts, others in B-schools, and in a few cases, it is in one but there is an affiliated PhD program in the other. These are all actuarial specific PhD programs, and there are a lot of good non-actuarial RM and insurance programs out there (Columbia Business School for example) that are not on this list.

Also, look in B-school stats departments. Some have well published actuarial faculty, and are affiliated with the various other PhD programs at the B-school, and in some cases the B-school stats department offers their own PhD (like at NYU Stern).
Thanks, Z. your post is very helpful as always.
