AbstractThis paper considers logarithmic asymptotics of tails of randomly stopped sums. The stopping is assumed to be independent of the underlying random walk. First, finiteness of ordinary moments is revisited. Then the study is expanded to more general asymptotic analysis. Results are applicable to a large class of heavy-tailed random variables. The main result enables one to identify if the asymptotic behaviour of a stopped sum is dominated by its increments or the stopping variable. As a consequence, new sufficient conditions for the moment determinacy of compounded sums are obtained.

Let be any increasing sequence of integers and M> 1; we connect to them in a very simply way, an increasing unbounded function φ: → R+. Let also X1, X2, · · · be a sequence of i.i.d. random vectors with value in euclidian space Rm. We prove that the cluster set of the sequence almost surely coincides with the unit ball of Rm, if, and only if, the covariance matrix of X1 is the identity matrix of Rm and EX1 is the zero vector of Rm. We define a functional A on the set of increasing sequences of integers as follows:.
