Risk and ruin theory features of actuar

چکیده
Risk theory refers to a body of techniques to model and measure the risk associated with a portfolio of insurance contracts. A first approach consists in modeling the distribution of total claims over a fixed period of time using the classical collective model of risk theory. A second input of interest to the actuary is the evolution of the surplus of the insurance company over many periods of time. In ruin theory, the main quantity of interest is the probability that the surplus becomes negative, in which case technical ruin of the insurance company occurs. The interested reader can read more on these subjects in Klugman et al. (2012); Gerber (1979); Denuit and Charpentier (2004); Kaas et al. (2008), among others. The current version of actuar (Dutang et al., 2008) contains four visible functions related to the above problems: two for the calculation of the aggregate claim amount distribution and two for ruin probability calculations.

The Expected Discounted Penalty Function (EDPF) was introduced in a series of now classical papers [Gerber, H.U., Shiu, E.S.W., 1997.

متن کاملA subordinated Markov model for stochastic mortality
In this paper we propose a subordinated Markov model for modeling stochastic mortality. The aging process of a life is assumed to follow a finite-state Markov process with a single absorbing state and the stochasticity of mortality is governed by a subordinating gamma process. We focus on the theoretical development of the model and have shown that the model exhibits many desirable properties o...
متن کاملCredibility theory features of actuar
Credibility models are actuarial tools to distribute premiums fairly among a heterogeneous group of policyholders (henceforth called entities). More generally, they can be seen as prediction methods applicable in any setting where repeated measures are made for subjects with different risk levels. The credibility theory features of actuar consist of matrix hachemeister containing the famous dat...
متن کاملAsymptotics for the infinite time ruin probability of a dependent risk model with a constant interest rate and dominatedly varying-tailed claim sizes
This paper mainly considers a nonstandard risk model with a constant interest rate, where both the claim sizes and the inter-arrival times follow some certain dependence structures. When the claim sizes are dominatedly varying-tailed, asymptotics for the infinite time ruin probability of the above dependent risk model have been given.
