This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior for the tail probability of the randomly weighted sums ∑k=1nθkXk and their maximum, where the random variables Xk and the random weights θk follow a certain dependence structure proposed by Asimit and Badescu [1] and Li et al. [2]. The obtained results can be used to obtain asymptotic formulas for ruin probability in the insurance risk models with discounted factors.

The asymptotic behaviour of the tail expectation ?E(Snξ)α?{Snξ>x} is investigated, where exponent α is a nonnegative real number and Snξ=ξ1+…+ξn is a sum of dominatedly varying and not necessarily identically distributed random summands, following a specific dependence structure. It turns out that the tail expectation of such a sum can be asymptotically bounded from above and below by the sums of expectations ?Eξiα?{ξi>x} with correcting constants. The obtained results are extended to the case of randomly weighted sums, where collections of random weights and primary random variables are independent. For illustration of the results obtained, some particular examples are given, where dependence between random variables is modelled in copulas framework.

Randomly Weighted Sums

This paper considers the randomly weighted sums generated by some dependent subexponential primary random variables and some arbitrarily dependent random weights. To study the randomly weighted sums with infinitely many terms, we establish a Kesten-type upper bound for their tail probabilities in presence of subexponential primary random variables and under a certain dependence among them. Our result extends the study of Chen [5] to the dependent case. As applications, we derive some asymptotic formulas for the tail probability and the Value-at-Risk of total aggregate loss in a multivariate operational risk cell model.

Randomly Weighted Sums

We investigate the tailed asymptotic behavior of the randomly weighted sums with increments with convolution-equivalent distributions. Our obtained result can be directly applied to a discrete-time insurance risk model with insurance and financial risks and derive the asymptotics for the finite-time probability of the above risk model.
