AbstractIn this paper a class of risk processes in which claims occur as a renewal process is studied. A clear expression for Laplace transform of the finite time ruin probability is well given when the claim amount distribution is a mixed exponential. As its consequence, a well-known result about ultimate ruin probability in the classical risk model is obtained.

We derive an expression for the density of the time to ruin in the classical risk model by inverting its Laplace transform. We then apply the result when the individual claim amount distribution is a mixed Erlang distribution, and show how finite time ruin probabilities can be calculated in this case.

This paper shows how the multivariate finite time ruin probability function, in a phase-type environment, inherits the phase-type structure and can be efficiently approximated with only one Laplace transform inversion.From a theoretical point of view, we also provide below a generalization of Thorin’s formula (1971) for the double Laplace transform of the finite time ruin probability, by considering also the deficit at ruin; the model is that of a Sparre Andersen (renewal) risk process with phase-type interarrival times.In the case when the claims distribution is of phase-type as well, we obtain also an alternative formula for the single Laplace transform in time (or “exponentially killed probability’’), in terms of the roots with positive real part of the Lundberg’s equations, which complements Asmussen’s representation (1992) in terms of the roots with negative real part.

ABSTRACTIn the classical risk model, we use probabilistic arguments to write down expressions in terms of the density function of aggregate claims for joint density functions involving the time to ruin, the deficit at ruin and the surplus prior to ruin. We give some applications of these formulae in the cases when the individual claim amount distribution is exponential and Erlang(2).
