Risk Measures: Robustness, Elicitability, and Backtesting

"...we argue that... the median shortfall—that is, the median of the tail loss distribution—is a better option than the expected shortfall for setting the Basel Accords capital requirements due to statistical and economic considerations such as capturing tail risk, robustness, elicitability, backtesting, and surplus invariance."

The Gerber‑Shiu discounted penalty function: From practical perspectives

"The Gerber-Shiu function provides a unified framework for the evaluation of a variety of risk quantities. Ever since its establishment, it has attracted constantly increasing interests in actuarial science, whereas the conventional research has been focused on finding analytical or semi-analytical solutions, either of which is rarely available, except for limited classes of penalty functions on rather simple risk models."

Risk sharing in equity‑linked insurance products: Stackelberg equilibrium

Date : Tags : , , , ,
"Stackelberg game. The reinsurer is the leader in the game and maximizes its expected utility by selecting its optimal investment strategy and a safety loading in the reinsurance contract it offers to the insurer. The reinsurer can assess how the insurer will rationally react on each action of the reinsurer. The insurance company is the follower and maximizes its expected utility by choosing its investment strategy and the amount of reinsurance the company purchases at the price offered by the reinsurer.

Detection and treatment of outliers for multivariate robust loss reserving

"Traditional techniques for calculating outstanding claim liabilities such as the chain ladder are notoriously at risk of being distorted by outliers in past claims data. Unfortunately, the literature in robust methods of reserving is scant, with notable exceptions … we put forward two alternative robust bivariate chain-ladder techniques to extend the approach of Verdonck and Van Wouwe (2011)."

Vine Copula Modelling Dependence Among Cyber Risks: A Dangerous Regulatory Paradox

" In quantifying the solvency capital requirement gradient for cyber risk measurement according to Solvency II, a dangerous paradox emerges: an insurance company can be ranked as solvent according to Pillar 1 without adequately evaluating the operational solvency capital requirements under Pillar 2.

Evaluation of Backtesting on Risk Models Based on Data Envelopment Analysis

"The methodologies examined include filtered historical simulation, extreme value theory, Monte Carlo simulation and historical simulation. Autoregressive-moving-average and generalized-autoregressive-conditional-heteroscedasticity models are used to estimate VaR."

Modeling Multivariate Operational Losses Via Copula‑Based Distributions with G‑and‑H Marginals

"The empirical evidence suggests that a distribution based on a single copula is not flexible enough, and thus we model the dependence structure by means of vine copulas. We show that the approach based on regular vines improves the fit. Moreover, even though losses corresponding to different event types are found to be dependent, the assumption of perfect positive dependence is not supported by our analysis. "

Cyber Loss Model Risk Translates to Premium Mispricing and Risk Sensitivity

"The standard statistical approaches to assessment of insurability and potential mispricing are enhanced in several aspects involving consideration of model risk … We demonstrate how to quantify the effect of model risk in this analysis by incorporating various robust estimators for key model parameter estimates that apply in both marginal and joint cyber risk loss process modelling."

Bayesian Backtesting for Counterparty Risk Models

Date : Tags : , , , ,
"... we find that the Bayesian approach outperforms the classical one in identifying whether a model is correctly specified which is the principal aim of any backtesting framework. The power of the methodology is due to its ability to test individual model parameters and hence identify which aspects of a model are misspecified as well as the degree of misspecification."
