Parameter Uncertainty in the Collective Risk Model [review]
نویسنده
چکیده
INTRODUCTION As the two major industry rating bureaus currently grapple with the problems of appropriate Table M charges, this paper must be considered particularly timely. The concept of parameter risk as an integral part of the total risk inherent in any insurance contract has long been recognized and discussed by actuaries. Although not always an equal partner with process risk in terms of explaining total loss ratio variance, parameter uncertainty becomes more and more important as the premium size of the insured increases. This paper goes further than any previous effort to explain, analyze and quantify parameter uncertainty as it relates to insurance pricing.

A Method to Estimate Probability Level for Loss Reserves
This paper explores the collective risk model as a vehicle for estimating the probability distribution for reserves. Though this basic model has been suggested in the past and It provides a direct means to estimate process uncertainty, it does not directly address the potentially more significant problem of parameter uncertainty. This paper presents some techniques to estimate parameter uncerta...
متن کاملScheduling Post-Distribution Cross-Dock under Demand Uncertainty
The system of distribution of goods and services, along with other economic developments around the world, is rapidly evolving. In the world of distribution of goods, the main focus is on making distribution operations more effective. Due to the fact that the cross-dock has the advantage of removing intermediaries and reducing the space required for the warehouse, it is worth considering. Among...
متن کاملCombining quantitative and qualitative measures of uncertainty in model-based environmental assessment: the NUSAP system.
This article discusses recent experiences with the Numeral Unit Spread Assessment Pedigree (NUSAP) system for multidimensional uncertainty assessment, based on four case studies that vary in complexity. We show that the NUSAP method is applicable not only to relatively simple calculation schemes but also to complex models in a meaningful way and that NUSAP is useful to assess not only parameter...

متن کاملOn the Distribution of Discounted Collective Risk Model
We study the distribution of discounted collective risk model where the counting process is Poisson. For the model considered here, we obtain mean, variance and moment generating function (m.g.f) of the model. To do this, we use two approaches. In the first approach we use classical methods to obtain the mean and variance. In the second approach we introduce some proper martingale and then we o...
