Fuzzy Markovian Bonus-Malus Systems in Non-Life Insurance
Markov chains (MCs) are widely used to model a great deal of financial and actuarial problems. Likewise, they are also used in many other fields ranging from economics, management, agricultural sciences, engineering or informatics to medicine. This paper

Multivariate Credibility in Bonus-Malus Systems Distinguishing between Different Types of Claims
In the classical bonus-malus system the premium assigned to each policyholder is based only on the number of claims made without having into account the claims size. Thus, a policyholder who has declared a claim that results in a relatively small loss is

Optimal Claiming Strategies in Bonus Malus Systems and Implied Markov Chains
In this paper, we investigate the impact of the accident reporting strategy of drivers, within a Bonus-Malus system. We exhibit the induced modification of the corresponding class level transition matrix and derive the optimal reporting strategy for ...

Bonus-malus Systems in Vehicle Insurance
AbstractActuaries in insurance companies try to design a tariff structure that will fairly distribute the burden of claims among policyholders. Therefore they try to find the best model for an estimation of the insurance premium. The paper deals with an estimate of a priori annual claim frequency and application of bonus-malus system in the vehicle ...

Discrete-Time Risk Models with Claim Correlated Premiums in a Markovian Environment
In this paper we consider a discrete-time risk model, which allows the premium to be adjusted according to claims experience. This model is inspired by the well-known bonus-malus system in the non-life insurance industry.

Multiple Bonus–Malus Scale Models for Insureds of Different Sizes
How to consider the a priori risks in experience-rating models has been questioned in the actuarial community for a long time. Classic past-claim-rating models, such as the Buhlmann–Straub credibility model, normalize the past experience of each insured ...

Asymmetric information, self-selection and pricing of insurance contracts: the simple no-claims case [PDF]
This paper presents an optional bonus-malus contract based on a pri-ori risk classification of the underlying insurance contract. By inducing self-selection, the purchase of the bonus-malus contract can be used as a screening device.
