In this paper, we develop an analytical framework for conducting forward-looking assessments of profitability and solvency of the main euro area insurance sectors. We model the balance sheet of an insurance company encompassing both life and non-life business and we calibrate it using country...

In this paper, we present a stochastic optimal control model to optimize an insurance firm problem in the case where its cash-balance process is assumed to be described by a stochastic differential equation driven by Teugels martingales. Noticing that the insurance firm is able to control its...

We introduce here a diffusion-type approximation of the ruin probability both in finite and infinite time for a two-dimensional risk process, where claims and premiums are shared with a predetermined proportion. This type of process is often called the insurer-reinsurer model. We assume that the...

Mortality is a stochastic process. We have imprecise knowledge about the probability distribution of mortality rates in the future. Mortality risk, therefore, can be defined in a broad term of ambiguity. In this paper, we investigate the effects of ambiguity and ambiguity aversion on prices of...
