In this paper, we consider a one-period optimal reinsurance design model with n reinsurers and an insurer. For very general preferences of the insurer, we obtain that there exists a very intuitive pricing formula for all reinsurers that use a distortion premium principle. The insurer determines...

This paper studies an optimal reinsurance problem of Pareto-optimality when the contract is subject to default of the reinsurer. We assume that the reinsurer can invest a share of its wealth in a risky asset and default occurs when the reinsurer's end-of-period wealth is insufficient to cover...

This paper studies the problem of optimal reinsurance contract design. We let the insurer use dual utility, and the premium is an extended Wang's premiumprinciple. The novel contribution is that we allow for heterogeneity in the beliefs regarding the underlying probability distribution. We...

To manage the risk of insurance companies, a reinsurance transaction is among the myriad risk management mechanisms the top ranked choice. In this paper, we study the design of optimal reinsurance contracts within a risk measure minimization framework and subject to the Vajda condition. The...

We study economic pricing of reinsurance contracts via competition of an insurer with multiple reinsurers. All firms are endowed with distortion risk measures or expected exponential utilities. We require that contracts are Pareto optimal, individually rational, and satisfy a competition...

This paper unifies the work on multiple reinsurers, distortion risk measures, premium budgets,and heterogeneous beliefs. An insurer minimizes a distortion risk measure, while seekingreinsurance with finitely many reinsurers. The reinsurers use distortion premium principles, andthey are allowed...

This paper studies a one-period optimal reinsurance design model with n reinsurers and an insurer. The reinsurers are endowed with expected-value premium principles and with heterogeneous beliefs regarding the underlying distribution of the insurer's risk. Under general preferences for the...
