Risk Measures and Insurance Solvency Benchmarks: Fixed-Probability
Levels in Renewal Risk Models is written for academics and
practitioners who are concerned about potential weaknesses of the
Solvency II regulatory system. It is also intended for readers who are
interested in pure and applied probability, have a taste for classical
and asymptotic analysis, and are motivated to delve into rather
intensive calculations.
The formal prerequisite for this book is a good background in analysis.
The desired prerequisite is some degree of probability training, but
someone with knowledge of the classical real-variable theory, including
asymptotic methods, will also find this book interesting. For those who
find the proofs too complicated, it may be reassuring that most results
in this book are formulated in rather elementary terms. This book can
also be used as reading material for basic courses in risk measures,
insurance mathematics, and applied probability. The material of this
book was partly used by the author for his courses in several
universities in Moscow, Copenhagen University, and in the University of
Montreal.
Features
- Requires only minimal mathematical prerequisites in analysis and
probability
- Suitable for researchers and postgraduate students in related fields
- Could be used as a supplement to courses in risk measures, insurance
mathematics and applied probability.
