The Statistical Distributional Validation under a Novel Generalized Gamma Distribution with Value-at-Risk Analysis for the Historical Claims, Censored and Uncensored Real-life Applications

This study introduces and examines a new probability distribution, presenting various characterizations. Key financial risk measures, including the value-at-risk (VaR), tail-value-at-risk (TVaR), also referred to as conditional tail expectation or conditional value-at-risk (CVaR), tail variance (TV), tail mean-variance (TMV), and mean excess loss (MExL) function are evaluated using maximum likelihood estimation, ordinary least squares, weighted least squares, and the Anderson-Darling estimation methods. These methods are applied for actuarial analysis in both a simulation study and an insurance claims data application. For validation of the distribution using complete data, the widely recognized Nikulin-Rao-Robson statistic is utilized and assessed through simulations and three real data sets. Two uncensored real-life data sets for failure times and remission times are used in uncensored validation. Additionally, for censored data validation, a modified version of the Nikulin-Rao-Robson statistic is proposed and evaluated through extensive simulations and three censored real data sets.

Abstract

This study introduces and examines a new probability distribution, presenting various characterizations. Key financial risk measures, including the value-at-risk (VaR), tail-value-at-risk (TVaR), also referred to as conditional tail expectation or conditional value-at-risk (CVaR), tail variance (TV), tail mean-variance (TMV), and mean excess loss (MExL) function are evaluated using maximum likelihood estimation, ordinary least squares, weighted least squares, and the Anderson-Darling estimation methods. These methods are applied for actuarial analysis in both a simulation study and an insurance claims data application. For validation of the distribution using complete data, the widely recognized Nikulin-Rao-Robson statistic is utilized and assessed through simulations and three real data sets. Two uncensored real-life data sets for failure times and remission times are used in uncensored validation. Additionally, for censored data validation, a modified version of the Nikulin-Rao-Robson statistic is proposed and evaluated through extensive simulations and three censored real data sets.
