Precise Estimates for the Ruin Probability in Finite Horizon in a Discrete-time Model with Heavy-tailed Insurance and Financial Risks

چکیده
This paper investigates the probability of ruin within finite horizon for a discrete time risk model, in which the reserve of an insurance business is currently invested in a risky asset. Under assumption that the risks are heavy tailed, some precise estimates for the finite time ruin probability are derived, which confirm a folklore that the ruin probability is mainly determined by whichever of insurance risk and financial risk is heavier than the other. In addition, some discussions on the heavy tails of the sum and product of independent random variables are involved, most of which have their own merits.

Finite- and Infinite-time Ruin Probabilities in the Presence of Stochastic Returns on Investments
This paper investigates the finiteand infinite-time ruin probabilities in a discrete-time stochastic economic environment. Under the assumption that the insurance risk – the total net loss within one time period – is extended-regularly-varying tailed or rapidly-varying tailed, various precise estimates for the ruin probabilities are derived. In particular, some estimates obtained are uniform wi...
متن کاملRuin Probabilities in a Dependent Discrete-Time Risk Model With Gamma-Like Tailed Insurance Risks
This paper considered a dependent discrete-time risk model, in which the insurance risks are represented by a sequence of independent and identically distributed real-valued random variables with a common Gamma-like tailed distribution; the financial risks are denoted by another sequence of independent and identically distributed positive random variables with a finite upper endpoint, but a gen...
متن کاملDiscrete Time Ruin Probability with Parisian Delay
In this paper we evaluate the probability of the discrete time Parisian ruin that occurs when surplus process stays below or at zero at least for some fixed duration of time d > 0. We identify expressions for the ruin probabilities within finite and infinite-time horizon. We also find their light and heavy-tailed asymptotics when initial reserves approach infinity. Finally, we calculate these p...
متن کاملAsymptotics for the infinite time ruin probability of a dependent risk model with a constant interest rate and dominatedly varying-tailed claim sizes
This paper mainly considers a nonstandard risk model with a constant interest rate, where both the claim sizes and the inter-arrival times follow some certain dependence structures. When the claim sizes are dominatedly varying-tailed, asymptotics for the infinite time ruin probability of the above dependent risk model have been given.
متن کاملThe impact on ruin probabilities of the association structure among financial risks
We consider a discrete-time insurance risk model, in which the financial risks constitute a stationary process with finite dimensional distributions of Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern type. We obtain an exact asymptotic formula for the ruin probability, reflecting the impact of this kind of association structure among the financial risks. r 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
