The computation of various risk metrics is essential to the quantitative risk management of variable annuity guaranteed benefits. The current market practice of Monte Carlo simulation often requires intensive computations, which can be very costly for insurance companies to implement and take so...

In this paper, we extend the concept of mutual exclusivity proposed by Dhaene and Denuit (1999) to its tail counterpart and baptise this new dependency structure as tail mutual exclusivity. Probability levels are first specified for each component of the random vector. Under this dependency...

In this paper, we derive upper and lower bounds on the Range Value-at-Risk of the portfolio loss when we only know its mean and variance, and its feature of unimodality. In a first step, we use some classic results on stochastic ordering to reduce this optimization problem to a parametric one,...
