Ordering properties of extreme claim amounts from heterogeneous portfolios

Y Zhang, X Cai, P Zhao - ASTIN Bulletin: The Journal of the IAA, 2019 - cambridge.org
In the context of insurance, the smallest and largest claim amounts turn out to be crucial to
insurance analysis since they provide useful information for determining annual premium. In …

Increasing convex order of capital allocation with dependent assets under threshold model

On total capacity of k‐out‐of‐n systems with random weights

Y Zhang, W Ding, P Zhao - Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2018 - Wiley Online Library
In engineering applications, many reliability systems can be modeled as k‐out‐of‐n systems
with components having random weights. Before putting such kind of system into a working …

Stochastic comparisons between the extreme claim amounts from two heterogeneous portfolios in the case of transmuted-G model

H Nadeb, H Torabi, A Dolati - North American Actuarial Journal, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
Let X λ 1,…, X λ n be independent and non-negative random variables belong to the
transmuted-G model and let Y i= I pi X λ i, i= 1,…, n, where I p 1,…, I pn are independent …

Allocations of cold standbys to series and parallel systems with dependent components

X Zhang, Y Zhang, R Fang - Applied Stochastic Models in …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
In the context of industrial engineering, cold‐standby redundancies allocation strategy is
usually adopted to improve the reliability of coherent systems. This paper investigates …

Ranking the extreme claim amounts in dependent individual risk models

N Torrado, J Navarro - Scandinavian Actuarial Journal, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
In risk theory, the distribution of extreme claim amounts of dependent risks is an essential
element, since it provides valuable information to companies for develo** risk reduction …

On heterogeneity in the individual model with both dependent claim occurrences and severities

Y Zhang, X Li, KC Cheung - ASTIN Bulletin: The Journal of the IAA, 2018 - cambridge.org
It is a common belief for actuaries that the heterogeneity of claim severities in a given
insurance portfolio tends to increase its dangerousness, which results in requiring more …

[HTML][HTML] Comparison of aggregation, minimum and maximum of two risky portfolios with dependent claims

S Ariyafar, M Tata, M Rezapour, M Madadi - Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2020 - Elsevier
The comparison of two risky portfolios has always been of interest in insurance and finance.
Classically, it is often assumed that the portfolio claims are independent, but in practice, this …
