In this paper, we consider the compound Poisson risk model with stochastic premium income. We propose a new estimation of Gerber-Shiu function by an efficient method: Fourier-cosine series expansion. We show that the estimator is easily computed and has a fast convergence rate. Some simulation examples are illustrated to show that the estimation has a good performance when the sample size is finite.

AbstractIn this paper, the density of the time to ruin is studied in the context of the classical compound Poisson risk model. Both one-dimensional and two-dimensional Fourier-cosine series expansions are used to approximate the density of the time to ruin, and the approximation errors are also obtained. Some numerical examples are also presented to show that the proposed method is very efficient.

We consider the dynamic proportional reinsurance in a two-dimensional compound Poisson risk model. The optimization in the sense of minimizing the ruin probability which is defined by the sum of subportfolio is being ruined. Via the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman approach we find a candidate for the optimal value function and prove the verification theorem. In addition, we obtain the Lundberg bounds and the Cramér-Lundberg approximation for the ruin probability and show that as the capital tends to infinity, the optimal strategies converge to the asymptotically optimal constant strategies. The asymptotic value can be found by maximizing the adjustment coefficient.

In this paper we consider a compound Poisson risk model where the insurer earns credit interest at a constant rate if the surplus is positive and pays out debit interest at another constant rate if the surplus is negative. Absolute ruin occurs at the moment when the surplus first drops below a critical value (a negative constant). We study the asymptotic properties of the absolute ruin probability of this model. First we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the absolute ruin probability when the claim size distribution is light tailed. Then we study the case where the common distribution of claim sizes are heavy tailed.
