Consider two different portfolios which have claims triggered by the same events. Their corresponding collective model over a fixed time period is given in terms of individual claim sizes $(X_i,Y_i), i\ge 1$ and a claim counting random variable $N$. In this paper we are concerned with the joint...

Calculation of an optimal tariff is a principal challenge for pricing actuaries. In this contribution we are concerned with the renewal insurance business discussing various mathematical aspects of calculation of an optimal renewal tariff. Our motivation comes from two important actuarial tasks,...

Following some recent works on risk aggregation and capital allocation for mixed Erlang risks joined by Sarmanov's multivariate distribution, in this paper we present some closed-form formulas for the same topic by considering, however, a different kernel function for Sarmanov's distribution,...

In this paper, we address the aggregation of dependent stop loss reinsurance risks where the dependence among the ceding insurer(s) risks is governed by the Sarmanov distribution and each individual risk belongs to the class of Erlang mixtures. We investigate the e?ects of the ceding insurer(s)...

This contribution is concerned with price optimisation of the new business for a non-life product. Due to high competition in the insurance market, non-life insurers are interested in increasing their conversion rates on new business based on some profit level. In this respect, we consider the...

Random shifting typically appears in credibility models whereas random scaling is often encountered in stochastic models for claim sizes reflecting the time-value property of money. In this article we discuss some aspects of random shifting and random scaling of insurance risks focusing in...

In this paper we discuss the asymptotic behaviour of random contractions $X=RS$, where $R$, with distribution function $F$, is a positive random variable independent of $S\in (0,1)$. Random contractions appear naturally in insurance and finance. Our principal contribution is the derivation of...

Asymptotic tail probabilities for linear combinations of randomly weighted order statistics are approximated under various assumptions. One key assumption is the asymptotic independence for all risks. Therefore, it is not surprising that the maxima represents the most influential factor when one...
