Optimal insurance under maxmin expected utility [PDF]

open access: closedFinance and Stochastics, 2023
We examine a problem of demand for insurance indemnification, when the insured is sensitive to ambiguity and behaves according to the Maxmin-Expected Utility model of Gilboa and Schmeidler (1989), whereas the insurer is a (risk-averse or risk-neutral) Expected-Utility maximizer.

Optimal allocations with α‐MaxMin utilities, Choquet expected utilities, and prospect theory

open access: diamondTheoretical Economics, 2023
The analysis of optimal risk sharing has been thus far largely restricted to nonexpected utility models with concave utility functions, where concavity is an expression of ambiguity aversion and/or risk aversion. This paper extends the analysis to α‐maxmin expected utility, Choquet expected utility, and cumulative prospect theory, which ...

α - Maxmin Expected Utility with Non-Unique Prior

open access: greenSSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
Preferences over acts have an α-Maxmin Expected Utility (α-MEU) representation if they can be represented by an α-mix between the worst and the best expected utility over a set or priors. The case α=1 is characterized in Gilboa and Schmeidler (1989). Inspired by their representation result, two novel types of axioms are introduced: α-Monotonicity and α-

Ambiguous events and maxmin expected utility

open access: greenJournal of Economic Theory, 2006
We study the properties associated to various definitions of ambiguity ([8], [9], [18] and [23]) in the context of Maximin Expected Utility (MEU). We show that each definition of unambiguous events produces certain restrictions on the set of priors, and completely characterize each definition in terms of the properties it imposes on the MEU functional.

Dynamically consistent alpha‐maxmin expected utility [PDF]

open access: closedMathematical Finance, 2019
AbstractThe alpha‐maxmin model is a prominent example of preferences under Knightian uncertainty as it allows to distinguish ambiguity and ambiguity attitude. These preferences are dynamically inconsistent for nontrivial versions of alpha. In this paper, we derive a recursive, dynamically consistent version of the alpha‐maxmin model.

Maxmin expected utility with non-unique prior [PDF]

open access: closedJournal of Mathematical Economics, 2010
An axiomatic foundation of the maxmin expected utility decision rule is proposed here. The main difference among the model of \textit{F. J. Anscombe} and \textit{R. J. Aumann} [Ann. Math. Stat. 34, 199--205 (1963; Zbl 0114.07204)] and the present one lies in the phrasing of the independence axiom. Uncertainty aversion is additionally assumed.
