Surplus analysis for variable annuities with a GMDB option [PDF]
, 2010 In this paper, we analyze the insurance surplus for a Variable Annuity contract with a Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) option. Initially, we derive the first two moments of the distribution of the surplus; and subsequently, we develop the whole ...

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the last several years, disaster insurance programs around the world have experienced disruptions that many observers interpret to be a primary symptom of “climate crisis” (Bittle 2024). Governments have responded to these disruptions through disjointed and at times contradictory measures: they treat disasters, alternately, as “Acts of God”

Estimation of Daily Smoking Prevalence for Disaggregated Statistical Areas in Australia
Australian &New Zealand Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Motivated by the need to estimate prevalence at multiple disaggregated level hierarchies, rather than only one, this study extends widely used area‐level models in Bayesian and frequentist framework. We propose adding additional unstructured random effects at higher level disaggregated domains to the traditional models. Using our extension, we

Automated Residual Plot Assessment With the R Package autovi and the Shiny Application autovi.web
Australian &New Zealand Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Visual assessment of residual plots is a common approach for diagnosing linear models, but it relies on manual evaluation, which does not scale well and can lead to inconsistent decisions across analysts. The lineup protocol, which embeds the observed plot among null plots, can reduce subjectivity but requires even more human effort.
