We develop portfolio optimization problems to a non-life insurance company for finding the minimum capital required, which simultaneously satisfy solvency and portfolio performance constraints. Motivated by standard insurance regulations, we consider solvency capital requirements based on three...

Quantifying the economic capital and optimally allocating it into portfolios of financial instruments are two key topics in the asset/liability management (ALM) of an insurance company. In general these problems are studied in the literature by minimizing standard risk measures such as the value...

In this article, we investigate the validity of diversification effect under extreme-value copulas, when the marginal risks of the portfolio are identically distributed, which can be any one having a finite endpoint or belonging to one of the three maximum domains of attraction. We show that...

Evaluating risk measures, premiums, and capital allocation based on dependent multi-losses is a notoriously difficult task. In this paper, we demonstrate how this can be successfully accomplished when losses follow the multivariate Pareto distribution of the second kind, which is an attractive...
