Deductibles in health insurance

This study is an extension to a simulation study that has been developed to determine ruin probabilities in health insurance. The study concentrates on inpatient and outpatient benefits for customers of varying age bands. Loss distributions are modelled through the Allianz tool pack for different classes of insureds. Premiums at different levels of deductibles are derived in the simulation and ruin probabilities are computed assuming a linear loading on the premium. The increase in the probability of ruin at high levels of the deductible clearly shows the insufficiency of proportional loading in deductible premiums. The PH-transform pricing rule developed by Wang is analyzed as an alternative pricing rule. A simple case, where an insured is assumed to be an exponential utility decision maker while the insurer’s pricing rule is a PH-transform is also treated.     

On Extending the LP Computable Risk Measures to Account Downside Risk

A mathematical model of portfolio optimization is usually quantified with mean-risk models offering a lucid form of two criteria with possible trade-off analysis. In the classical Markowitz model the risk is measured by a variance, thus resulting in a quadratic programming model. Following Sharpe’s work on linear approximation to the mean-variance model, many attempts have been made to linearize the portfolio optimization problem. There were introduced several alternative risk measures which are computationally attractive as (for discrete random variables) they result in solving linear programming (LP) problems. Typical LP computable risk measures, like the mean absolute deviation (MAD) or the Gini’s mean absolute difference (GMD) are symmetric with respect to the below-mean and over-mean performances. The paper shows how the measures can be further combined to extend their modeling capabilities with respect to enhancement of the below-mean downside risk aversion. The relations of the below-mean downside stochastic dominance are formally introduced and the corresponding techniques to enhance risk measures are derived.The resulting mean-risk models generate efficient solutions with respect to second degree stochastic dominance, while at the same time preserving simplicity and LP computability of the original models. The models are tested on real-life historical data.The research was supported by the grant PBZ-KBN-016/P03/99 from The State Committee for Scientific Research.

Portfolio Selection Problem with Minimax Type Risk Function

The investor's preference in risk estimation of portfolio selection problems is important as it influences investment strategies. In this paper a minimax risk criterion is considered. Specifically, the investor aims to restrict the standard deviation for each of the available stocks. The corresponding portfolio optimization problem is formulated as a linear program. Hence it can be implemented easily. A capital asset pricing model between the market portfolio and each individual return for this model is established using nonsmooth optimization methods. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate our approach for the risk estimation.     

基于灰色关联分析的财产保险公司偿付能力的模糊综合评判

为解决财产保险公司的偿付能力的评价问题,建立了基于灰色关联分析的模糊综合评判模型.选取了2003-2005年我国8家财产保险公司的相关数据,用灰色关联分析中的点关联系数求解隶属度得出评判矩阵,用范数灰关联度法确定因素集中各因素的权重,从而对其偿付能力进行模糊综合评判,得出各公司的偿付能力所属的类别.并对评语集中各评语赋予适当的权重,对所研究的8家财产保险公司依据其偿付能力的情况进行了排序.     

中国股市基本面价值加权投资组合研究

基本面价值加权投资组合是近年来在美国兴起的新型投资理论和技术.其基础是噪声市场假说和价格回归价值。本文回顾了基本面投资组合的相关文献,解释了其建立的理论基础和模型.本文还根据平滑市值权重技术,构建了基于中国股票市场的基本面投资组合,并和传统的市值加权投资组合进行比较。本文的主要结论是,中国市场1992年到2002年和美国市场类似呈现平稳价格噪声,基本面投资组合总体优于市值加权组合.股权分置改革初期市场低落,市场价格过度低估基本面价值,市值组合占优势。2005年下半年来股市呈现一定泡沫特征,市场价格对基本面价值有过度高估趋势,间接地证明了相关部门对股市过热的警告和监管是合理的.     

Computational methods in lattice-subspaces of with applications in portfolio insurance

In this article, we develop a computational method for an algorithmic process first posed by Polyrakis in 1996 in order to check whether a finite collection of linearly independent positive functions in C[a,b] forms a lattice-subspace. Lattice-subspaces are closely related to a cost minimization problem in the theory of finance that ensures the minimum-cost insured portfolio and this connection is further investigated here. Finally, we propose a computational method in order to solve the minimization problem and to calculate the minimum-cost insured portfolio. All of the numerical work is performed using the Matlab high-level language.     

An optimal insurance strategy for an individual under an intertemporal equilibrium

In this paper, we discuss how a risk-averse individual under an intertemporal equilibrium chooses his/her optimal insurance strategy to maximize his/her expected utility of terminal wealth. It is shown that the individual’s optimal insurance strategy actually is equivalent to buying a put option, which is written on his/her holding asset with a proper strike price. Since the cost of avoiding risk can be seen as a risk measure, the put option premium can be considered as a reasonable risk measure. Jarrow [Jarrow, R., 2002. Put option premiums and coherent risk measures. Math. Finance 12, 135-142] drew this conclusion with an axiomatic approach, and we verify it by solving the individual’s optimal insurance problem.
