For general risk processes, we introduce and study the expected time-integrated negative part of the process on a fixed time interval. Differentiation theorems are stated and proved. They make it possible to derive the expected value of this risk measure, and to link it with the average total time below 0, studied by Dos Reis, and the probability of ruin. We carry out differentiation of other f...

In this paper, we study the actual operating of an insurance company with random income. A double compound Poisson-Geometric risk model with interference was established. By using the martingale method, the adjustment coefficient equation, the formula and the upper bound of ruin probability, the time to reach a given level in this new risk model were obtained.

The fitness of a biological strategy is typically measured by its expected reproductive rate, the first moment of its offspring distribution. However, strategies with high expected rates can also have high probabilities of extinction. A similar situation is found in gambling and investment, where strategies with a high expected payoff can also have a high risk of ruin. We take inspiration from ...

The paper incorporates liquid reserves, interest and dividends in the compound Poisson surplus model. When an insurer’s surplus is below a certain level, it is kept as liquid reserves. As the surplus attains the level, the excess of the surplus above the level will earn interest at a constant interest rate. If the surplus continues to surpass a higher level, the excess of the surplus above this...

Shiu derives two formulas for calculating the probability of eventual ruin in a collective risk model. This paper implements one of the formulas by incorporating an algorithm to reduce round-off error due to convolution. It gives the results of the programs for some claim distributions. The usefulness of these two formulas is also discussed.
