Optimal excess-of-loss reinsurance and investment problem for an insurer with jump-diffusion risk process under the Heston model

摘要

In this paper, we study the optimal excess-of-loss reinsurance and investment problem for an insurer with jump-diffusion risk model. The insurer is allowed to purchase reinsurance and invest in one risk-free asset and one risky asset whose price process satisfies the Heston model. The objective of the insurer is to maximize the expected exponential utility of terminal wealth. By applying stochastic optimal control approach, we obtain the optimal strategy and value function explicitly. In addition, a verification theorem is provided and the properties of the optimal strategy are discussed. Finally, we present a numerical example to illustrate the effects of model parameters on the optimal investment-reinsurance strategy and the optimal value function.
