Optimal reinsurance under VaR and CTE risk measures

J Cai, KS Tan, C Weng, Y Zhang - Insurance: mathematics and Economics, 2008 - Elsevier
Let X denote the loss initially assumed by an insurer. In a reinsurance design, the insurer
cedes part of its loss, say f (X), to a reinsurer, and thus the insurer retains a loss If (X)= X− f …

After VaR: the theory, estimation, and insurance applications of quantile‐based risk measures

K Dowd, D Blake - Journal of Risk and Insurance, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
We discuss a number of quantile‐based risk measures (QBRMs) that have recently been
developed in the financial risk and actuarial/insurance literatures. The measures considered …

Optimal reinsurance revisited–a geometric approach

KC Cheung - ASTIN Bulletin: The Journal of the IAA, 2010 - cambridge.org
In this paper, we reexamine the two optimal reinsurance problems studied in Cai et
al.(2008), in which the objectives are to find the optimal reinsurance contracts that minimize …

Optimal reinsurance with general risk measures

A Balbás, B Balbás, A Heras - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2009 - Elsevier
This paper studies the optimal reinsurance problem when risk is measured by a general risk
measure. Necessary and sufficient optimality conditions are given for a wide family of risk …

Optimal reinsurance minimizing the distortion risk measure under general reinsurance premium principles

W Cui, J Yang, L Wu - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2013 - Elsevier
Recently the optimal reinsurance strategy concerning the insurer's risk attitude and the
reinsurance premium principle has been an interesting topic. This paper discusses the …

Optimal reinsurance with general premium principles

Y Chi, KS Tan - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2013 - Elsevier
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 …

Optimal reinsurance under general law-invariant risk measures

KC Cheung, KCJ Sung, SCP Yam… - Scandinavian Actuarial …, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
In recent years, general risk measures play an important role in risk management in both
finance and insurance industry. As a consequence, there is an increasing number of …

[HTML][HTML] Robust and Pareto optimality of insurance contracts

AV Asimit, V Bignozzi, KC Cheung, J Hu… - European Journal of …, 2017 - Elsevier
The optimal insurance problem represents a fast growing topic that explains the most
efficient contract that an insurance player may get. The classical problem investigates the …

Optimality of general reinsurance contracts under CTE risk measure

KS Tan, C Weng, Y Zhang - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2011 - Elsevier
By formulating a constrained optimization model, we address the problem of optimal
reinsurance design using the criterion of minimizing the conditional tail expectation (CTE) …

Optimal reinsurance under risk and uncertainty

A Balbás, B Balbás, R Balbás, A Heras - Insurance: Mathematics and …, 2015 - Elsevier
This paper deals with the optimal reinsurance problem if both insurer and reinsurer are
facing risk and uncertainty, though the classical uncertainty free case is also included. The …
