  2. Solvency • Financial controlofliabilities under nearlyworst-case scenarios • Target: thereserve • which is theupperpercentileoftheportfolioliability • Modelling has beencovered (Risk premiumcalculations) • The issuenow is computation • Monte Carlo is the general tool • Some problems can be handled by simpler, Gaussianapproximations

  3. 10.2 Portfolioliabilities by simple approximation • The portfolio loss for independent risks becomeGaussian as J tends to infinity. • Assumethat policy risks X1,…,XJarestochastically independent • Mean and variance for theportfolio total arethen which is averageexpectation and variance. Then • as J tends to infinfity • Note that risk is underestimated for smallportfolios and in brancheswith large claims

  4. Normal approximations

  5. The ruleof double variance Let X and Y be arbitraryrandom variables for which Thenwe have theimportantidentities Poisson Somenotions Ruleof double expectation Ruleof double variance Examples Random intensities

  6. The ruleof double variance Portfolio risk in general insurance Poisson Elementaryrules for random sums imply Somenotions Examples Random intensities

  7. The ruleof double variance This leads to the true percentileqepsilonbeingapproximated by Where phi epsilon is theupperepsilonpercentileofthe standard normal distribution Poisson Somenotions Examples Random intensities

  8. Fire data from DNB

  9. Normal approximations in R z=scan("C:/Users/wenche_adm/Desktop/Nils/uio/Exercises/Branntest.txt"); # removes negatives nyz=ifelse(z>1,z,1.001); mu=0.0065; T=1; ksiZ=mean(nyz); sigmaZ=sd(nyz); a0 = mu*T*ksiZ; a1 = sqrt(mu*T)*sqrt(sigmaZ^2+ksiZ^2); J=5000; qepsNO95=a0*J+a1*qnorm(.95)*sqrt(J); qepsNO99=a0*J+a1*qnorm(.99)*sqrt(J); qepsNO9997=a0*J+a1*qnorm(.9997)*sqrt(J); c(qepsNO95,qepsNO99,qepsNO9997);

  10. The normal powerapproximation ny3hat = 0; n=length(nyz); for (i in 1:n) { ny3hat = ny3hat + (nyz[i]-mean(nyz))**3 } ny3hat = ny3hat/n; LargeKsihat=ny3hat/(sigmaZ**3); a2 = (LargeKsihat*sigmaZ**3+3*ksiZ*sigmaZ**2+ksiZ**3)/(sigmaZ^2+ksiZ^2); qepsNP95=a0*J+a1*qnorm(.95)*sqrt(J)+a2*(qnorm(.95)**2-1)/6; qepsNP99=a0*J+a1*qnorm(.99)*sqrt(J)+a2*(qnorm(.99)**2-1)/6; qepsNP9997=a0*J+a1*qnorm(.9997)*sqrt(J)+a2*(qnorm(.9997)**2-1)/6; c(qepsNP95,qepsNP99,qepsNP9997);

  11. Portfolioliabilities by simulation • Monte Carlo simulation • Advantages • More general (norestrictiononuse) • More versatile (easy to adapt to changingcircumstances) • Better suited for longer time horizons • Disadvantages • Slowcomputationally? • Dependingonclaimsizedistribution?

  12. An algorithm for liabilitiessimulation • Assumeclaimintensities for J policiesarestoredon file • Assume J differentclaimsizedistributions and paymentfunctions H1(z),…,HJ(z) arestored • The program can be organised as follows (Algorithm 10.1)
