Abstract:
In the classic bivariate compound Poisson models, the numbers of claims are assumed to be correlated through a common Poisson distribution, while the claim sizes are independent. In this paper, we assume that both the numbers of claims and claim sizes are positively dependent through the stochastic ordering. Through comparing, we find that the condition of positive dependence through the stochastic ordering is weaker than correlating through a common Poisson distribution. In fact, the assumption of positive dependence through the stochastic ordering is weaker than independence, comonotonicity, conditionally stochastically increasing et al.. With the positively dependent risks through the stochastic ordering, we get the optimal reinsurance strategy. In addition, with the mixed two-dimensional and stochastic-dimensional dependent risks, we give the explicit expressions of retention vector under the criterion of minimizing the variance of the total retained loss and maximizing the quadratic utility, which partially solves the problem, proposed by Cai and Wei (2012a), of getting such expressions with multi-dimensional dependent risks.
