We unify and extend a number of approaches related to constructing multivariate Variance-Gamma (V.G.) models for option pricing. An overarching model is derived by subordinating multivariate Brownian motion to a subordinator from the Thorin (1977) class of generalised Gamma convolution...

We compare two types of reinsurance: excess of loss (EOL) and largest claim reinsurance (LCR), each of which transfers the payment of part, or all, of one or more large claims from the primary insurance company (the cedant) to a reinsurer. The primary insurer's point of view is documented in...

Continuous time models have been elevated to great importance in the modelling of time series data, in response to the successful options pricing model of Black and Scholes (1973), among other things. In 2004, Kluppelberg, Lindner, and Maller introduced the “COGARCH” model as a...
