Optimizing Expected Utility of Dividend Payments for a Brownian Risk Process and a Peculiar Nonlinear ODE
We consider the problem of maximizing the expected utility of discounted dividend payments of an insurance company. The risk process, describing the insurance business of the company, is modeled as Brownian motion with drift. We mainly consider power utility and special emphasis is given to the limiting behavior when the coefficient of risk aversion tends to zero. We then find convergence of th...
متن کاملRisk premiums and certainty equivalents of loss-averse newsvendors of bounded utility
Loss-averse behavior makes the newsvendors avoid the losses more than seeking the probable gains as the losses have more psychological impact on the newsvendor than the gains. In economics and decision theory, the classical newsvendor models treat losses and gains equally likely, by disregarding the expected utility when the newsvendor is loss-averse. Moreover, the use of unbounded utility to m...
متن کاملOptimal dividend strategies for a compound Poisson process under transaction costs and power utility
We characterize the value function of maximizing the total discounted utility of dividend payments for a compound Poisson insurance risk model when strictly positive transaction costs are included, leading to an impulse control problem. We show how to derive an optimal strategy for exponential claim amounts and construct a numerical procedure to deal with general claim amount distributions. 1 C...
متن کاملOptimal Dividends in an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Type Model with Credit and Debit Interest
In the absence of investment and dividend payments, the surplus is modeled by a Brownian motion. But now assume that the surplus earns investment income at a constant rate of credit interest. Dividends are paid to the shareholders according to a barrier strategy. It is shown how the expected discounted value of the dividends and the optimal dividend barrier can be calculated; Kummer’s confluent...
متن کاملDividend Maximization under Consideration of the Time Value of Ruin∗
In the Cramér-Lundberg model and its di usion approximation, it is a classical problem to nd the optimal dividend payment strategy that maximizes the expected value of the discounted dividend payments until ruin. One often raised disadvantage of this approach is the fact that such a strategy does not take the life time of the controlled process into account. In this paper we introduce a value f...
