Abstract
Bounds on the tail of compound distributions are considered. Using a generalization of Wald's fundamental identity, we derive upper and lower bounds for various compound distributions in terms of new worse than used (NWU) and new better than used (NBU) distributions respectively. Simple bounds are obtained when the claim size distribution is NWUC, NBUC, NWU, NBU, IMRL, DMRL, DFR and IFR. Examples on how to use these bounds are given.
