In this paper, we consider an extension of the classical risk model in which the premium rate policy is adaptive to claim experience. We assume that the premium rate is reviewed each time the surplus reaches a new descending ladder height. A choice between a finite number m of rates is then made...

Recent research into the nature of the distribution of the time of ruin in some Sparre Andersen risk models has resulted in series expansions for the associated density function. Examples include Dickson and Willmot (2005) in the classical Poisson model with exponential interclaim times, and...

In this paper, we consider a risk model which allows the insurer to partially reflect the recent claim experience in the determination of the next period’s premium rate. In a ruin context, similar mechanisms to the one proposed in this paper have been studied by, e.g., Tsai and Parker (2004),...
