In the presence of reinsurance, an insurer may effectively reduce its (aggregated) loss by partially ceding such a loss … to a reinsurer. Stop-loss and quota-share reinsurance contracts are commonly agreed between these two parties. In this … are firstly investigated. Optimizing such a reinsurance design is then carried out from the joint perspective of the …

We address the moral hazard problem of securitization using a principal-agent model where the investor is the principal and the lender is the agent. Our model considers structured asset-backed securitization with a credit enhancement (tranching) procedure. We assume that the originator can...

Forecasting financial risk and risk measurement methods have been of increasing interest for financial market regulators and financial institutions in the past two decades. While the parametric and semi-parametric models have been widely reviewed in the academic literature, the non-parametric...

Evaluating risk measures, premiums, and capital allocation based on dependent multi-losses is a notoriously difficult task. In this paper, we demonstrate how this can be successfully accomplished when losses follow the multivariate Pareto distribution of the second kind, which is an attractive...

In this work we propose a new estimator for Zenga's inequality measure in heavy tailed populations. The new estimator is based on the Weissman estimator for high quantiles. We will show that, under fairly general conditions, it has asymptotic normal distribution. Further we present the results...
