Asymptotic Estimates for the One-Year Ruin Probability under Risky Investments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Motivated by the EU Solvency II Directive, we study the one-year ruin probability of an insurer who makes investments and hence faces both insurance and financial risks. Over a time horizon of one year, the insurance risk is quantified as a nonnegative random variable X equal to the aggregate amount of claims, and the financial risk as a d-dimensional random vector Y consisting of stochastic discount factors of the d financial assets invested. To capture both heavy tails and asymptotic dependence of Y in an integrated manner, we assume that Y follows a standard multivariate regular variation (MRV) structure. As main results, we derive exact asymptotic estimates for the one-year ruin probability for the following cases: (i) X and Y are independent with X of Fréchet type; (ii) X and Y are independent with X of Gumbel type; (iii) X and Y jointly possess a standard MRV structure; (iv) X and Y jointly possess a nonstandard MRV structure.

Ruin probabilities under general investments and heavy-tailed claims
In this paper we study the asymptotic decay of finite time ruin probabilities for an insurance company that faces heavy-tailed claims, uses predictable investment strategies and makes investments in risky assets whose prices evolve according to quite general semimartingales. We show that the ruin problem corresponds to determining hitting probabilities for the solution to a randomly perturbed s...
متن کاملAsymptotic Results for Renewal Risk Models with Risky Investments
We consider a renewal jump-diffusion process, more specifically a renewal insurance risk model with investments in a stock whose price is modeled by a geometric Brownian motion. Using Laplace transforms and regular variation theory, we introduce a transparent and unifying analytic method for investigating the asymptotic behavior of ruin probabilities and related quantities, in models with light...
متن کاملAsymptotic Ruin Probabilities for a Bivariate Lévy-Driven Risk Model with Heavy-Tailed Claims and Risky Investments
Consider a general bivariate Lévy-driven risk model. The surplus process Y , starting with Y0 = x > 0, evolves according to dYt = Yt−dRt − dPt for t > 0, where P and R are two independent Lévy processes representing, respectively, a loss process in a world without economic factors and a process describing return on investments in real terms. Motivated by a conjecture of Paulsen, we study the fi...
متن کاملUniform asymptotic estimates for ruin probabilities of renewal risk models with exponential Lvy process investment returns and dependent claims
This paper investigates the ruin probabilities of a renewal risk model with stochastic investment returns and dependent claim sizes. The investment is described as a portfolio of one risk-free asset and one risky asset whose price process is an exponential Lévy process. The claim sizes are assumed to follow a one-sided linear process with independent and identically distributed step sizes. When...
متن کاملFinite- and Infinite-time Ruin Probabilities in the Presence of Stochastic Returns on Investments
This paper investigates the finiteand infinite-time ruin probabilities in a discrete-time stochastic economic environment. Under the assumption that the insurance risk – the total net loss within one time period – is extended-regularly-varying tailed or rapidly-varying tailed, various precise estimates for the ruin probabilities are derived. In particular, some estimates obtained are uniform wi...
