Abstract

In actuarial literature the properties of risk measures or insurance premium principles have been extensively studied. We propose a characterization of a particular class of coherent risk measures defined in [Art99]. The considered premium principles are obtained by expansion of TVaR measures, consequently they look very interesting in insurance pricing where TVaR measures are frequently used to value tail risks.
