Distorted expectations can be expressed as weighted averages of quantiles. In this note, we show that this statement is true, but that one has to be careful with the correct formulation of it. Furthermore, the proofs of the additivity property for distorted expectations of a comonotonic sum that...

Random shifting typically appears in credibility models whereas random scaling is often encountered in stochastic models for claim sizes reflecting the time-value property of money. In this article we discuss some aspects of random shifting and random scaling of insurance risks focusing in...
