Estimation of the Lundberg coefficient for a Markov modulated risk model

Pages 48-57 | Received 29 Mar 1995, Published online: 22 Dec 2011
 

Abstract

For a Cox risk model with a piecewise constant intensity some random variables with an exponential tail are constructed and an estimation procedure for the Lundberg exponent (adjustment coefficient) is proposed. It is shown that in the case of a Markov modulated risk model the estimator is strongly consistent.
