In this paper, we study two classes of optimal reinsurance models from the perspective of an insurer by minimizing its total risk exposure under the criteria of value at risk (VaR) and conditional value at risk (CVaR), assuming that the reinsurance premium principles satisfy three basic axioms:...

In this paper, we investigate the optimal form of reinsurance when the insurer seeks to minimize the value at risk(VaR) or the conditional value at risk(CVaR) of his/her total risk exposure. In order to exclude the moral hazard from a reinsurance treaty, both the ceded and retained loss...

In this paper, we study optimal reinsurance design by minimizing the risk-adjusted value of an insurer’s liability, where the valuation is carried out by a cost-of-capital approach based either on the value at risk or the conditional value at risk. To prevent moral hazard and to be consistent...
