The Markov-Modulated Risk Model with Investment

  • Conference paper

Part of the Operations Research Proceedings book series (ORP,volume 2006)

Abstract

We consider Markov-modulated risk reserves which can be invested into a stock index following a geometric Brownian motion. Within a special class of investment policies we identify one which maximizes the adjustment coefficient. A comparison to the compound Poisson case is also given.
