On the Moments of the Time of Ruin with Applications to Phase-type Claims
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe an approach to the evaluation of the moments of the time of ruin in the classical Poisson risk model. The methodology employed involves the expression of these moments in terms of linear combinations of convolutions involving compound negative binomial distributions. We then adapt the results for use in the practically important case involving phase-type claim size distributions. We present numerical examples to illuminate the influence of claim size variability on the moments of the time of ruin.

On The Moments Of The Time To Ruin Distribution When The Initial Reserve Is Large And Claim Amount Distribution Is Two Stage Hypo Exponential Distribution
In any classical risk model one of the important random variable is time to ruin. As time to ruin warns the management for possible adverse situations that may arise, the distribution of time to ruin place a vital role in the day to day transactions of the any insurance company. Moments of the distribution are also important as coefficient of skewness of the distribution is very important in ac...
متن کاملThe time to ruin for a class of Markov additive risk processes
Risk processes are considered, which locally behave as a Brownian motion with some drift and variance, both depending on an underlying Markov chain that is used also to generate the claims arrival process. Thus claims arrive according to a renewal process with waiting times of phase-type. The claims are assumed to form an iid sequence, independent of everything else, and with a distribution wit...
متن کاملA nonlinear second order field equation – similarity solutions and relation to a Bellmann-type equation - Applications to Maxwellian Molecules
In this paper Lie’s formalism is applied to deduce classes of solutions of a nonlinear partial differential equation (nPDE) of second order with quadratic nonlinearity. The equation has the meaning of a field equation appearing in the formulation of kinetic models. Similarity solutions and transformations are given in a most general form derived to the first time in terms of reciprocal Jacobian...
متن کاملThe Joint Density of the Surplus before and after Ruin in the Sparre Andersen Model
Gerber and Shiu (1997) have studied the joint density of the time of ruin, the surplus immediately before ruin, and the deficit at ruin in the classical model of collective risk theory. More recently, their results have been generalised for risk models where the interarrival density for claims is nonexponential, but belongs to the Erlang family. Here we obtain generalisations of the Gerber–Shiu...
متن کاملClosed-form Ruin Probabilities in Classical Risk Models with Gamma Claims
In this paper we provide three equivalent expressions for ruin probabilities in a Cramér-Lundberg model with gamma distributed claims. The results are solutions of integro-differential equations, derived by means of (inverse) Laplace transforms. All the three formulas have infinite series forms, two involving Mittag-Leffler functions and the third one involving moments of the claims distributio...
