This paper considers the optimal time-consistent investment and reinsurance strategies for an insurer under Heston’s stochastic volatility (SV) model. Such an SV model applied to insurers’ portfolio problems has not yet been discussed as far as we know. The surplus process of the insurer is...

The optimal excess-of-loss reinsurance and investment strategies under a constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model for an insurer are considered in this paper. Assume that the insurer’s surplus process is approximated by a Brownian motion with drift, the insurer can purchase excess-of-loss...

This paper investigates the optimal time-consistent policies of an investment-reinsurance problem and an investment-only problem under the mean-variance criterion for an insurer whose surplus process is approximated by a Brownian motion with drift. The financial market considered by the insurer...

This paper studies an optimal investment and reinsurance problem incorporating jumps for mean–variance insurers within a game theoretic framework and aims to seek the corresponding time-consistent strategies. Specially, the insurers are allowed to purchase proportional reinsurance, acquire new...

This paper considers a robust optimal reinsurance and investment problem under Heston’s Stochastic Volatility (SV) model for an Ambiguity-Averse Insurer (AAI), who worries about model misspecification and aims to find robust optimal strategies. The surplus process of the insurer is assumed to...

In this paper, we discuss three different approaches to select an equivalent martingale measure for the valuation of contingent claims under a Markovian regime-switching Lévy model. These approaches are the game theoretic approach, the Esscher transformation approach and the general equilibrium...

We develop a flexible model to value longevity bonds which incorporates several important sources of risk, namely, interest rate risk, mortality risk and the risk due to structural changes in economic and environmental conditions. In particular, Markov, regime-switching, jump-diffusion models...

This paper focuses on the constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model for studying the utility maximization portfolio selection problem with multiple risky assets and a risk-free asset. The Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the portfolio optimization problem is...

In this paper, we study the optimal excess-of-loss reinsurance and investment problem for an insurer with jump–diffusion risk model. The insurer is allowed to purchase reinsurance and invest in one risk-free asset and one risky asset whose price process satisfies the Heston model. The...
