We present an analytical study of an insurance company. We model the company's performance on a statistical basis and evaluate the predicted annual income of the company in terms of insurance parameters namely the premium, total number of the insured, average loss claims etc. We restrict ourselves to a single insurance…

Study classifies liability insurance policies using machine learning.

problem Classifying liability insurance policies with or without claims.
method Used machine learning models like nearest neighbour and logistic regression on Actuarial Challenge dataset.

We consider the insurance company as a physical system which is immersed in its environment (the financial market). The insurer company interacts with the market by exchanging the money through the payments for loss claims and receiving the premium. Here in the equilibrium state we obtain the premium by using the canon…

Paper analyzes strategic underreporting in competitive insurance markets.

problem Strategic underreporting by insureds in competitive insurance markets.
method Develops a dynamic insurance market model with two competing companies and a continuum of insureds, examines the interaction between strategic underreporting and competitive pricing under a Bonus-Malus System framework.

The paper optimizes insurance dividend payments and reinsurance strategies under specific distribution constraints.

problem Optimizing insurance dividend payments and reinsurance strategies with terminal distribution constraints.
method Explicit expressions for optimal strategies found in both discrete and continuous time settings.
result Explicit expressions for optimal dividend strategies and reinsurance strategies found.

We study solvency of insurers in a comprehensive model where various economic factors affect the capital developments of the companies. The main interest is in the impact of real growth to ruin probabilities. The volume of the business is allowed to increase or decrease. In the latter case, the study is focused on run-…

Study optimal investment and reinsurance for insurance companies in a dynamic market model.

problem Optimal investment and reinsurance strategies for insurance companies in a regime-switching market model.
method Forward dynamic exponential utility, value function construction, proportional reinsurance optimization.
result Characterization of optimal investment strategy and proportional reinsurance level.

Study clusters Kenyan medical insurance companies based on financial performance and reporting consistency.

problem Identifying financial health and reporting consistency in Kenyan medical insurance companies.
method Advanced clustering techniques (KMeans, DTW) on financial ratios and time series data.
result Four distinct clusters identified, each representing different financial performance and reporting consistency combinations.

Optimal reinsurance and dividend strategy for insurance companies in a finite time.

problem Maximizing dividends while managing risk in a finite time horizon.
method Dynamic control problem with Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation, penalty approximation method.
result Smoothness of the value function and comparison principle for its gradient.

Two insurance companies collaborate to maximize the probability of none going bankrupt.

problem Maximizing the probability of no company bankruptcy in a correlated Brownian motion model.
method Analyzing optimal strategies and deriving explicit formulas for minimal ruin probability.
result Maximizing collaboration benefits when Brownian motions are positively correlated.

Machine learning models outperform traditional actuarial methods in predicting health insurance costs.

problem Improving accuracy in health insurance pricing to identify concession opportunities.
method Developed and evaluated two machine learning models at the patient and employer-group levels.
result Machine learning models outperformed traditional actuarial models by 20% in predicting costs.

In this note we find a formula for the supremum distribution of spectrally positive or negative Lévy processes with a broken linear drift. This gives formulas for ruin probabilities in the case when two insurance companies (or two branches of the same company) divide between them both claims and premia in some specifie…

In this paper we consider the optimal dividend problem for an insurance company whose risk process evolves as a spectrally negative Lévy process in the absence of dividend payments. The classical dividend problem for an insurance company consists in finding a dividend payment policy that maximizes the total expected di…

The net-premium principle is considered to be the most genuine and fair premium principle in actuarial applications. However, an insurance company, applying the net-premium principle, goes bankrupt with probability one in the long run, even if the company covers its entire costs by collecting the respective fees from i…

The aim of this paper is to introduce an insurance model allowing reinsurance and dividend payment. Our model deals with several homogeneous contracts and takes into account the legislation regarding the provisions to be justified by the insurance companies. This translates into some restriction on the (maximal) number…

Study on insurance risk management and sustainable development.

problem Lack of attention to non-climate change aspects of sustainable development in insurance.
method Analysis of recent developments and legislative initiatives in insurance risk management.
result Strategies for small- and medium-sized enterprises to manage sustainable development risks.

We consider a two-dimensional optimal dividend problem in the context of two insurance companies with compound Poisson surplus processes, who collaborate by paying each other's deficit when possible. We solve the stochastic control problem of maximizing the weighted sum of expected discounted dividend payments (among a…

Study optimal investment-reinsurance strategies in equity-linked insurance products using Stackelberg game theory.

problem Optimizing investment and reinsurance strategies in equity-linked insurance products with capital guarantees.
method Modelled as a Stackelberg game where reinsurer acts as leader and insurer as follower, with general utility functions and power utility functions analyzed.
result Derive Stackelberg equilibrium for general utility functions and calculate it explicitly for power utility functions, finding reinsurer optimizes premium to incentivize maximal reinsurance purchase.

The paper finds optimal threshold strategies for insurance companies with a positive terminal value at creeping ruin.

Mack-Net model combines Mack's model with RNNs for better insurance liability estimation.

problem Accurate estimation of insurance liabilities for better financial decision-making.
method Integrates Mack's reserving model with Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs).

One possible way of risk management for an insurance company is to develop an early and appropriate alarm system before the possible ruin. The ruin is defined through the status of the aggregate risk process, which in turn is determined by premium accumulation as well as claim settlement outgo for the insurance company…

We propose a model for an insurance loss index and the claims process of a single insurance company holding a fraction of the total number of contracts that captures both ordinary losses and losses due to catastrophes. In this model we price a catastrophe derivative by the method of utility indifference pricing. The as…
