Abstract
Young (1999) discussed the conjecture proposed by Christofides (1998) regarding the premium principle of Wang (1995, 1996). She shows that this conjecture is true for location-scale families and for certain other families, but false in general. In addition Young (1999) states that it remains an open problem to determine under what circumstances Wang's premium principle reduces to the standard deviation (SD) premium principle.In this paper we will provide further discussion of this problem. We will show that, for a fixed distortion, the natural set on which Wang's premium principle can reduce to the SD premium principle is and only is the union of location-scale families which satisfies some condition. Furthermore, it will be shown that the natural set is and only is a location-scale family if Wang's premium principle can be reduced to the SD premium principle for any distortion.
