Optimal Allocation of Policy Limits and Deductibles
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we study the problems of optimal allocation of policy limits and deductibles. Several objective functions are considered: maximizing the expected utility of wealth assuming the losses are independent, minimizing the expected total retained loss, and maximizing the expected utility of wealth when the dependence structure is unknown. Orderings of the optimal allocations are obtained.

Stochastic orders of scalar products with applications
In this paper, we study stochastic orders of scalar products of random vectors. Based on the study of Ma (2000), we first obtain more general conditions under which linear combinations of random variables can be ordered in the increasing convex order. As an application of this result, we consider the scalar product of two random vectors which separates the severity effect and the frequency effe...
متن کاملSome new notions of dependence with applications in optimal allocation problems
Dependence structures of multiple risks play an important role in optimal allocation problems for insurance, quantitative risk management, and finance. However, in many existing studies on these problems, risks or losses are often assumed to be independent or comonotonic or exchangeable. In this paper, we propose several new notions of dependence to model dependent risks and give their characte...
متن کاملOptimal portfolio allocation with imposed price limit constraint
Daily price limits are adopted by many securities exchanges in countries such as the USA, Canada, Japan and various other countries in Europe and Asia, in order to increase the stability of the financial market. These limits confine the price of the financial asset during all trading stages of any trading day to a range, usually determined based on the previous day’s closing price. In this pape...
متن کاملOptimal Allocation of the Distributed Active Filters Based on Total Loss Reduction
With the dramatic growth of nonlinear loads, it is desired to improve active filters performance and enhance their capacity. One of the most favorable methods is applying distributed active filter system (DAFS) in which leads to minimizing the cost, weight & size .The main purpose of this paper is to determine the locations and sizes of distributed active filter system (DAFS) With emphasis on r...
متن کاملSome New Results on Policy Limit Allocations
Suppose that a policyholder faces $n$ risks X1, ..., Xn which are insured under the policy limit with the total limit of l. Usually, the policyholder is asked to protect each Xi with an arbitrary limit of li such that ∑ni=1li=l. If the risks are independent and identically distributed with log-concave cumulative distribution function, using the notions of majorization and stochastic orderings, ...
