A game-theoretic approach to non-life insurance market cycles
In this paper, we develop a noncooperative game to model a non-life insurance market. Our first goal will be to analyze the effects of competition between insurers through different indicators: the solvency level, the market share, the underwriting results. Secondly, we will seek to further understand the genesis of insurance market cycles. Insurance market cycles have troubled actuaries and ac...
متن کاملA game-theoretic look at simple relay channel
In this paper, we address the problem of communication over the relay channel from the perspective of a stochastic game and evaluate the fundamental tradeoffs between direct communication and relaying through a detailed foray into the questions of throughput, delay and energy-efficiency. We consider a simple wireless ad-hoc network with a transmitter, a relay and a common destination. The relay...
متن کاملA Game-theoretic Look at the Gaussian Multiaccess Channel
We study the issue of how to fairly allocate communication rate among the users of a Gaussian multiaccess channel. All users are assumed to value rate equally and each is assumed to have no limit on its desired rate. We adopt a cooperative game-theoretic viewpoint, i.e. it is assumed that the users can potentially form coalitions off line to threaten other users with jamming the channel, using ...
متن کاملMortality Assessment Technology: A New Tool for Life Insurance Underwriting
The ability to more accurately predict chronic disease morbidity and mortality endpoints could play a meaningful role in improving life insurance underwriting and actuarial analysis. Currently, most medical risk assessment in life insurance is not only less accurate than probability based prediction, but also unable to incorporate new scientific research findings into its algorithm. In this pap...
متن کاملThe Added Value of Medical Testing in Underwriting Life Insurance.
BACKGROUND In present-day life-insurance medical underwriting practice the risk assessment starts with a standard health declaration (SHD). Indication for additional medical screening depends predominantly on age and amount of insured capital. From a medical perspective it is questionable whether there is an association between the level of insured capital and medical risk in terms of mortality...
