This paper proposes a new method to introduce coherent risk measures for risks with infinite expectation, such as those … characterized by some Pareto distributions. Extensions of the conditional value at risk, the weighted conditional value at risk and …

A critical problem in risk analysis involving financial variables is the calculation of risk margins. When there are a … number of risks, the total risk margin is often reduced to reflect "diversification benefits." How large should the …

However, such … incompleteness generates basis risk, that is the risk that claims do not match losses.

Purchasing life insurance is for the welfare of young children, par-ticularly preteens, who are liquidity constrained. In this paper, we present a life cycle model of life insurance that takes into account the ages of these young beneciaries. We show that, as the child ages, the need for...
