In this paper, we extend the Cramér-Lundberg risk model perturbed by diffusion to incorporate the jumps of surplus investment return. Under the assumption that the jump of surplus investment return follows a compound Poisson process with Laplace distributed jump sizes, we obtain the explicit...

This article attempts to extend Arrow's theorem of the deductible to the case of belief heterogeneity, which allows the insured and the insurer to have different beliefs about the distribution of the underlying loss. Like Huberman et al. (1983), we preclude ex post moral hazard by asking both...

In this paper, we investigate the insurance choice of a risk-averse and prudent insured by assuming that the insurance premium is calculated by a general mean–variance principle. This general class of premium principles encompasses many widely used premium principles such as expected value,...

This paper studies the design of an optimal insurance contract with background risk from the perspective of an insured with a general mean-variance preference, where admissible insurance policies satisfy an incentive compatible constraint. This constraint ensures that both parties in an...

In this paper, we extend the Cramer-Lundberg insurance risk model perturbed by diffusion to incorporate stochastic volatility and study the resulting Gerber-Shiu expected discounted penalty (EDP) function. Under the assumption that volatility is driven by an underlying Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU)...

In this paper, we study an optimal reinsurance model from the perspective of an insurer, who has a general mean-variance preference. In order to reduce ex post moral hazard, we assume that both parties in a reinsurance contract are obligated to pay more for a larger realization of loss. We...

A retrospective rating plan, whose insurance premium depends upon an insured's actual loss during the policy period, is a special insurance agreement widely used in liability insurance. In this paper, the design of an optimal retrospective rating plan is analyzed from the perspective of the...

In this paper, we investigate the optimal form of reinsurance from the perspective of an insurer when he decides to cede part of the loss to two reinsurers, where the first reinsurer calculates the premium by expected value principle while the premium principle adopted by the second reinsurer...

The optimal reinsurance contract is investigated from the perspective of an insurer who would like to minimise its risk exposure under Solvency II. Under this regulatory framework, the insurer is exposed to the retained risk, reinsurance premium and change in the risk margin requirement as a...
