Abstract

When the premium rate is a positive absolute constant throughout the time period of observation and the safety loading of the insurance business is positive, a classical result of collective risk theory claims that probabilities of ultimate ruin ψ(u) and of ruin within finite time ψ(t,u) decrease as eϰu with a constant ϰ>0, as the initial risk reserve u increases. This paper establishes uniform approximations to ψ(t,u) with slower rates of decrease when the premium rate depends on u in such a way that the safety loading decreases to zero as u→∞.
