We investigate lower and upper bounds for right tails (stop-loss premiums) of deterministic and stochastic sums of nonindependent random variables. The bounds are derived using the concepts of comonotonicity, convex order, and conditioning. The performance of the presented approximations is...

In this paper we present in a general setting lower and upper bounds for the stop-loss premium of a (stochastic) sum of dependent random variables. Therefore, use is made of the methodology of comonotonic variables and the convex ordering of risks, introduced by Kaas et al. (2000) and Dhaene et...
