A Simple Estimation of Parameters for Discrete Distributions from the Schröter Family [PDF]

open access: yesStatistika: Statistics and Economy Journal, 2023
One of the common challenges in actuarial mathematics is finding a model for the number of claims and claim severity. We focus on one of the suggested models, namely, on the Schröter family of discrete probability distributions. Furthermore, we introduce

Mixed Poisson Regression Models with Varying Dispersion Arising from Non-Conjugate Mixing Distributions

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
In this article we present a class of mixed Poisson regression models with varying dispersion arising from non-conjugate to the Poisson mixing distributions for modelling overdispersed claim counts in non-life insurance.

On the effects of changing mortality patterns on investment, labour and consumption under uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we extend the consumption-investment life cycle model for an uncertain-lived agent, proposed by Richard (1974), to allow for exible labor supply.

Uniform Asymptotic Probability for Multi Renewal Risk Model with Strong Subexponential Tailed Claims [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2022
In this paper, we study the uniform asymptotic behavior for the ruin probability in a continuous time renewal counting process. For the proposed model, we assume that the financial claims for each extreme event are compensated by a finite number of ...

Sharp convex bounds on the aggregate sums--An alternative proof [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It is well known that a random vector with given marginal distributions is comonotonic if and only if it has the largest sum with respect to the convex order [ Kaas, Dhaene, Vyncke, Goovaerts, Denuit (2002), A simple geometric proof that comonotonic ...

Measuring economic inequality and risk: a unifying approach based on personal gambles, societal preferences and references [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The underlying idea behind the construction of indices of economic inequality is based on measuring deviations of various portions of low incomes from certain references or benchmarks, that could be point measures like population mean or median, or ...
