Generalized linear models might not be appropriate when the probability of extreme events is higher than that implied by the normal distribution. Extending the method for estimating the parameters of a double Pareto lognormal distribution (DPLN) in Reed and Jorgensen (2004), we develop an EM...

This paper extends the work of Yuen et al. (2013), who obtained explicit results for the discount-free Gerber–Shiu function for a compound binomial risk model in the presence of delayed claims and a randomized dividend strategy with a zero threshold level. Specifically, we establish a...
