Abstract

The paper deals with a generalization of the risk model with stochastic premiums where dependence structures between claim sizes and inter-claim times as well as premium sizes and inter-premium times are modeled by Farlie--Gumbel--Morgenstern copulas. In addition, dividends are paid to its shareholders according to a threshold dividend strategy. We derive integral and integro-differential equations for the Gerber--Shiu function and the expected discounted dividend payments until ruin. Next, we concentrate on the detailed investigation of the model in the case of exponentially distributed claim and premium sizes. In particular, we find explicit formulas for the ruin probability in the model without either dividend payments or dependence as well as for the expected discounted dividend payments in the model without dependence. Finally, numerical illustrations are presented.

Highlights

  • A lot of attention is paid to the investigation of the ruin measures such as the ruin probability, the surplus prior to ruin and the deficit at ruin

  • Marceau and Marri [15, 16] deal with an extension of the classical compound Poisson risk model where a dependence structure between the claim size and the inter-claim time is introduced through a Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula and its generalization

  • Marceau and Marri [17, 18] consider the classical risk process with a constant dividend barrier and a dependence structure between claim sizes and interclaim times introduced through the Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula

Summary

Introduction

A lot of attention is paid to the investigation of the ruin measures such as the ruin probability, the surplus prior to ruin and the deficit at ruin (see, e.g., [6, 34, 39] and references therein). Marceau and Marri [15, 16] deal with an extension of the classical compound Poisson risk model where a dependence structure between the claim size and the inter-claim time is introduced through a Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula and its generalization They derive the integro-differential equation and the Laplace transform of the Gerber–Shiu discounted penalty function and concentrate on exponentially distributed claim sizes. Marceau and Marri [17, 18] consider the classical risk process with a constant dividend barrier and a dependence structure between claim sizes and interclaim times introduced through the Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern copula They analyze the Gerber–Shiu function and the expected discounted dividend payments and concentrate on exponentially distributed claim sizes investigating the impact of the dependence on ruin quantities.
