In this paper we consider a reinsurance strategy which combines a proportional and an excess-of-loss reinsurance in a risk model with multiple dependent classes of insurance business.

Abstract
In this paper we consider a reinsurance strategy which combines a proportional and an excess-of-loss reinsurance in a risk model with multiple dependent classes of insurance business. Under the assumption that the claim number of the classes has a multivariate Poisson distribution, the aim is to maximize the expected utility of terminal wealth. In a general setting, after deriving the corresponding Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation, we prove a Verification Theorem and identify sufficient conditions for the optimality. Then, in a special case with exponential utility, an explicit solution is found by solving an intricate associated static constrained optimization problem.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
