RISK THEORY - LECTURE NOTES 1. INTRODUCTION The primary subject of Risk Theory is the development and study of mathematical and statistical models to describe and predict the behaviour of insurance portfolios‚ which are simply financial instruments composed of a (possibly quite large) number of individual policies. For the purposes of this course‚ we will define a policy as a random (or stochastic) process generating a deterministic income in the form of periodic premiums‚ and incurring financial

first. The seminal paper of Markowitz [8] opened a new era in portfolio optimization. The paper formulated the investment decision problem as a risk-return tradeoff. In its original formulation it was‚ in fact‚ a mean-variance optimization with the mean as a measure of return and the variance as a measure of risk. To solve this problem the distribution of random returns of risky assets must be known. In the standard Markowitz formulation returns of these risky assets are assumed to be distributed according

Assignment 1 1. Looking at SCORE variable‚ the skewness is -0.0511422 and excess kurtosis is 0.208336. For the normal distribution‚ skewness is zero. Since the skewness for SCORE variable is negative‚ this indicates that the distribution is skewed to the left (the long tail will be in the negative direction). For the normal distribution‚ kurtosis is three. So K-3 measures excess kurtosis. Since the excess kurtosis for SCORE variable is positive‚ the distribution is leptokurtic (it has thick tails

Let’s relax this assumption and allow the covariance between Xi and ui to be dierent from zero. Our problem here is that ui is not observed. Doing OLS
