We introduce the family of law-invariant convex risk functionals, which includes a wide majority of practically used convex risk measures and deviation measures. We obtain a unified representation theorem for this family of functionals. Two related optimization problems are studied. In the first...

In this paper, we study Pareto optimality of reinsurance arrangements under general model settings. We give the necessary and sufficient conditions for a reinsurance contract to be Pareto-optimal and characterize all Pareto-optimal reinsurance contracts under more general model assumptions. We...

In this paper we study the aggregate risk of inhomogeneous risks with dependence uncertainty, evaluated by a generic risk measure. We say that a pair of risk measures are asymptotically equivalent if the ratio of the worst-case values of the two risk measures is almost one for the sum of a large...

It is natural to connect reinsurance problems with risk measures since a reinsurance contract is an efficient risk management tool for an insurer and the reinsurance premium can also be viewed as a measure of a reinsurer's risk. In this paper, we assume that the insurer uses a law-invariant...
