The claim arrival process to an insurance company is modeled by a compound Poisson process whose intensity and/or jump size distribution changes at an unobservable time with a known distribution. It is in the insurance company's interest to detect the change time as soon as possible in order to re-evaluate a new fair v…

Introduces an unobservable intrinsic electricity price to link storage theory with risk premium.

problem Connecting storage theory with risk premium in electricity markets.
method Introduces an unobservable intrinsic electricity price and derives prices for various contracts.
result Finds an overall negative risk premium in empirical analysis.

We investigate, focusing on the ruin probability, an adaptation of the Cramer-Lundberg model for the surplus process of an insurance company, in which, conditionally on their intensities, the two mixed Poisson processes governing the arrival times of the premiums and of the claims respectively, are independent. Such a …

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…

Paper finds significant impact of stock market swings on equity risk premium predictability.

problem Predicting equity risk premium based on stock market behavior changes.
method Introduced Bullish Index and used FDMAA for returns analysis; considered 28 indicators.
result Positive shocks in Bullish Index correlate with strong equity risk premium predictability for up to six months, while negative shocks correlate for up to nine months.

The study finds no evidence of stochastic arbitrage opportunities in S&P 500 index options.

problem Identifying arbitrage opportunities in S&P 500 index options.
method Developed linear and mixed-integer linear programs to compute the maximum option premium.
result No evidence of systematic stochastic arbitrage opportunities in S&P 500 index options.

We model the quantities appearing in Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax guidance for calculating the health insurance premium tax credit created by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also called Obamacare. We ask the question of whether there is a procedure, computable by hand, which can calculate the appr…
