A spatial mixed Poisson framework for combination of excess-of-loss and proportional reinsurance contracts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper a purely theoretical reinsurance model is presented, where the reinsurance contract is assumed to be simultaneously of an excess-of-loss and of a proportional type. The stochastic structure of the set of pairs (claim’s arrival time, claim’s
