We re-visit the problem of optimal insurance design under Rank-Dependent Expected Utility (RDEU) examined by Bernard et al. (2015), Xu (2018), and Xu et al. (2015). Unlike the latter, we do not impose the no sabotage condition on admissible indemnities, that is, the comonotonicity of indemnity...

In the classical expected utility framework, a problem of optimal insurance design with a premium constraint is equivalent to a problem of optimal insurance design with a minimum expected retention constraint. When the insurer has ambiguous beliefs represented by a non-additive probability...

Empirical evidence suggests that ambiguity is prevalent in insurance pricing and underwriting, and that often insurers tend to exhibit more ambiguity than the insured individuals (e.g., Hogarth and Kunreuther (1989)). Motivated by these findings, we consider a problem of demand for insurance...

This paper studies the design of Pareto-optimal reinsurance contracts in a market where the insurer and reinsurer maximize their expected utilities of end-of-period wealth. In addition, we assume that the insurer and reinsurer wish to control their solvency risks, which are defined through...

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...
