Compound Compound Poisson Risk Model

Minkova, Leda D. (2009)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 60K10, 62P05. The compound Poisson risk models are widely used in practice. In this paper the counting process in the insurance risk model is a compound Poisson process. The model is called Compound Compound Poisson Risk Model. Some basic properties and ruin probability are given. We analyze the model under the proportional reinsurance. The optimal retention level and the corresponding adjustment coefficient are obtained. The particular...

Models for stochastic mortality

Jan Iwanik (2007)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

This paper is an attempt to present and analyse stochastic mortality models. We propose a couple of continuous-time stochastic models that are natural generalizations of the Gompertz law in the sense that they reduce to the Gompertz function when the volatility parameter is zero. We provide a statistical analysis of the available demographic data to show that the models fit historical data well. Finally, we give some practical examples for the multidimensional models.

On the singular limit of solutions to the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross interest rate model with stochastic volatility

Beáta Stehlíková, Daniel Ševčovič (2009)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper we are interested in term structure models for pricing zero coupon bonds under rapidly oscillating stochastic volatility. We analyze solutions to the generalized Cox–Ingersoll–Ross two factors model describing clustering of interest rate volatilities. The main goal is to derive an asymptotic expansion of the bond price with respect to a singular parameter representing the fast scale for the stochastic volatility process. We derive the second order asymptotic expansion of...

Applications of time-delayed backward stochastic differential equations to pricing, hedging and portfolio management in insurance and finance

Łukasz Delong (2012)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate novel applications of a new class of equations which we call time-delayed backward stochastic differential equations. Time-delayed BSDEs may arise in insurance and finance in an attempt to find an investment strategy and an investment portfolio which should replicate a liability or meet a target depending on the strategy applied or the past values of the portfolio. In this setting, a managed investment portfolio serves simultaneously as the underlying security on which...

General proportional mean residual life model

Mohamed Kayid, Salman Izadkhah, Dalal ALmufarrej (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

By considering a covariate random variable in the ordinary proportional mean residual life (PMRL) model, we introduce and study a general model, taking more situations into account with respect to the ordinary PMRL model. We investigate how stochastic structures of the proposed model are affected by the stochastic properties of the baseline and the mixing variables in the model. Several characterizations and preservation properties of the new model under different stochastic orders and...

Asymptotic evaluation of the Poisson measures for tubes around jump curves

Xavier Bardina, Carles Rovira, Samy Tindel (2002)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We find the asymptotic behavior of P(||X-ϕ|| ≤ ε) when X is the solution of a linear stochastic differential equation driven by a Poisson process and ϕ the solution of a linear differential equation driven by a pure jump function.
