Time-consistent robust investment-reinsurance strategy with common shock dependence under CEV model

This paper investigates the optimal robust equilibrium investment and reinsurance strategy in a model with common shock dependent claims for an ambiguity-averse insurer (AAI). Suppose that the insurance company can purchase proportional reinsurance whose reinsurance premium is calculated by the expected value principle to disperse risks. The ambiguity-averse insurer's wealth process have two dependent classes of insurance business and the surplus can be invested in a financial market composed of one risk-free asset and one risky asset, where the risky asset's price is characterized by the constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model. Applying the game theory framework under the mean-variance criterion, the optimal investment reinsurance problem are derived. By adopting stochastic control theory and solving the corresponding extended Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations, we obtain the robust optimal investment-reinsurance strategy and the corresponding equilibrium value function. Furthermore, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effects of model parameters on the optimal investment and reinsurance strategy.

Abstract

This paper investigates the optimal robust equilibrium investment and reinsurance strategy in a model with common shock dependent claims for an ambiguity-averse insurer (AAI). Suppose that the insurance company can purchase proportional reinsurance whose reinsurance premium is calculated by the expected value principle to disperse risks. The ambiguity-averse insurer's wealth process have two dependent classes of insurance business and the surplus can be invested in a financial market composed of one risk-free asset and one risky asset, where the risky asset's price is characterized by the constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model. Applying the game theory framework under the mean-variance criterion, the optimal investment reinsurance problem are derived. By adopting stochastic control theory and solving the corresponding extended Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations, we obtain the robust optimal investment-reinsurance strategy and the corresponding equilibrium value function. Furthermore, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effects of model parameters on the optimal investment and reinsurance strategy.
