B k represents the amount of the kth claim B 1, B 2,... form a sequence of i.i.d. positive r.v. s (B k B) and independent of M Expression of F X (x): F X (x) = Pr (M = 0) + k=1 Pr (M = k) Pr (B B k x) Étienne Marceau (École d actuariat, Université Laval) Aggregation and capital allocation April 26-30, / 58

7 2. Risk measures Compound distribution Expression of E X 1 fx >bg :... = = k=0 Pr (M = k) E X 1 fx >bg jm = k Pr (M = k) E (B B k ) 1 fb B k >bg k=1 Expression of TVaR κ (X ):... = k=1 Pr (M = k) E 1 κ + VaR κ (X ) (F X (VaR κ (X )) κ) 1 κ h i (B B k ) 1 fb B k >VaR κ (X )g Assume that the claims B 1, B 2,... are continuous (with an eventual mass at 0) Étienne Marceau (École d actuariat, Université Laval) Aggregation and capital allocation April 26-30, / 58

8 2. Risk measures Compound distribution The distribution of X has a probability mass at 0 and with a continuous part for x > 0. If κ < Pr (M = 0) then VaR κ (X ) = 0. Moreover, when κ > Pr (M = 0), it implies that VaR κ (X ) > 0 so that F X (VaR κ (X )) = κ. ) Expression for TVaR κ (X ): h i k=1 Pr (M = k) E (B B k ) 1 fb B k >VaR κ (X )g 1 κ Only interesting when B B k belongs to a family of distributions closed under convolution (ex: Gamma distribution, mixed Erlang distribution) Étienne Marceau (École d actuariat, Université Laval) Aggregation and capital allocation April 26-30, / 58

16 3. Aggregate claim amount for a portfolio of n risks We consider a portfolio of n risks over a xed period Total claim amount (or loss) for risk i: X i (n = 1, 2,..., n) Aggregate claim amount for the portfolio: E [S] = n i=1 E [X i ] S = X X n Var (S) = n i=1 Var (X i ) + n i=1 n j=1,j6=i Cov (X i, X j ) Traditional assumption for (X 1,..., X n ): independence (until mid-nineties) Independence assumption may be inappropriate in several situations Since mid-nineties, several papers propose and study multivariate models in risk theory In this talk, we x n = 2 and consider bivariate compound distributions for (X 1, X 2 ) Étienne Marceau (École d actuariat, Université Laval) Aggregation and capital allocation April 26-30, / 58
