We consider the optimal dividend problem in the so-called degenerate bivariate risk model under the assumption that the surplus of one branch may become negative. More specific, we solve the stochastic control problem of maximizing discounted dividends until simultaneous ruin of both branches of...

We study the dividend optimization problem for a company where surplus in the absence of dividend payments follows a Cramér–Lundberg process compounded by constant force of interest. The company controls the times and amounts of dividend payments subject to reserve constraints that dividends...

We consider in this paper that the reserve of an insurance company follows the classical model, in which the aggregate claim amount follows a compound Poisson process. Our goal is to minimize the ruin probability of the company assuming that the management can invest dynamically part of the...

We consider in this paper the optimal dividend problem for an insurance company whose uncontrolled reserve process evolves as a classical Cramér–Lundberg model with arbitrary claim-size distribution. Our objective is to find the dividend payment policy which maximizes the cumulative expected...
