Strategies for dividend distribution: A review

B Avanzi - North American Actuarial Journal, 2009 - Taylor & Francis
In today's world of financial uncertainty, one major public concern is to assess (and possibly
improve) the stability of companies that take on risks. Actuaries have been aware of that …

On the analysis of the Gerber–Shiu discounted penalty function for risk processes with Markovian arrivals

S Ahn, AL Badescu - Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2007 - Elsevier
In this paper, we consider an insurance risk model governed by a Markovian arrival claim
process and by phase-type distributed claim amounts, which also allows for claim sizes to …
