On a strategy to develop robust and simple tariffs from motor vehicle insurance data
Christmann, Andreas - 2004
The goals of this paper are twofold: we describe common features in data sets from motor vehicle insurance companies and we investigate a general strategy which exploits the knowledge of such features. The results of the strategy are a basis to develop insurance tariffs. The strategy is applied...

Robustness of VSL Values from Contingent Valuation Surveys
Alberini, Anna - 2004
This paper examines factors that may influence the estimates of the Value of a Statistical Life obtained from contingent valuation surveys that elicit the willingness to pay (WTP) for mortality risk reductions. We examine the importance of distributional assumptions, the choice of the welfare...

On group sequential tests based on robust location and scale estimators in the two-sample problem
Christmann, Andreas - 1998
The behaviour of group sequential tests in the two-sample problem is investigated if one replaces the classical non-robust estimators in the t-test statistic by modern robust estimators of location and scale. Hampel's 3-part redescending M-estimator 25A used in the Princeton study and the robust...

Monetary regimes: Is there a trade-off between consumption and employment variability?
Matthews, Kent; Meenagh, David; Minford, Patrick; Webb, … - 2006
Macro models generally assume away heterogeneous welfare in assessing policies. We investigate here within two aggregative models ó one with a representative agent, the other a long-used forecasting model of the UK ó whether allowing for di§erences in welfare functions (speciÖcally between...
