The important application of semi-static hedging in financial markets naturally leads to the notion of conditionally quasi self-dual processes which is, for continuous semimartingales, related to conditional symmetry properties of both their ordinary as well as their stochastic logarithms. We...

In our previous paper “A unified approach to systemic risk measures via acceptance sets” (Mathematical Finance, 2018), we have introduced a general class of systemic risk measures that allow random allocations to individual banks before aggregation of their risks. In the present paper, we...

This article examines neural network‐based approximations for the superhedging price process of a contingent claim in a discrete time market model. First we prove that the α‐quantile hedging price converges to the superhedging price at time 0 for α tending to 1, and show that the...

We study risk-minimization for a large class of insurance contracts. Given that the individual progress in time of visiting an insurance policy's states follows an F-doubly stochastic Markov chain, we describe different state-dependent types of insurance benefits. These cover single payments at...

The timing option embedded in a futures contract allows the short position to decide when to deliver the underlying asset during the last month of the contract period. In this paper we derive, within a very general incomplete market framework, an explicit model independent formula for the...

This paper assesses the risk of a mass lapse event in life insurance. The rarity of the event and the complexity of policyholder behavior make the risk assessment of such a scenario difficult. Using a simulation study, we evaluate how different estimation methods can assess the risk of this...
