Enhanced Weather-Based Index Insurance Design for Hedging Crop Yield Risk

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
This study proposes an optimization-based weather-yield model to reduce the basis risk of weather-based index insurance. This weather-yield model helps us capture the growing season's monthly variation as it involves monthly explanatory weather indices ...

Quadratic Hedging of Basis Risk [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Financial Management, 2015
This paper examines a simple basis risk model based on correlated geometric Brownian motions. We apply quadratic criteria to minimize basis risk and hedge in an optimal manner. Initially, we derive the Föllmer–Schweizer decomposition for a European claim.

Cross Hedging Under Multiplicative Basis Risk [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
Cross hedging price risk in an incomplete financial market creates basis risk. We propose a new way of modeling basis risk where price risk and basis risk are combined in a multiplicative way. Under this specification, positive prudence is a necessary and sufficient condition for underhedging in an unbiased market.

A Two-Population Mortality Model to Assess Longevity Basis Risk

open access: yesRisks, 2021
Index-based hedging solutions are used to transfer the longevity risk to the capital markets. However, mismatches between the liability of the hedger and the hedging instrument cause longevity basis risk. Therefore, an appropriate two-population model to

Mean‐variance hedging with basis risk [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry, 2018
AbstractBasis risk arises in a number of financial and insurance risk management problems when the hedging assets do not perfectly match the underlying asset in a hedging program. Notable examples in insurance include the hedging for longevity risks, weather index–based insurance products, variable annuities, etc.

Basis risk and weather hedging effectiveness [PDF]

open access: yesAgricultural Finance Review, 2008
Basis risk – the risk that payoffs of a hedging instrument do not correspond to the underlying exposures – is cited as a primary concern for implementing weather data, we investigate several dimensions of weather basis risk in the U.S. corn market. Results suggest that while geographic basis risk can be significant, it should not preclude the use of ...
