CMP Upgrade
This CMP Upgrade lists all significant changes to the Core Reading and the ActEd
material since last year so that you can manually amend your 2014 study material to
make it suitable for study for the 2015 exams. It includes replacement pages and
additional pages where appropriate.
Alternatively, you can buy a full replacement set of up-to-date Course Notes at a
significantly reduced price if you have previously bought the full price Course Notes in
this subject. Please see our 2015 Student Brochure for more details.
This CMP Upgrade contains:

all changes to the Syllabus objectives and Core Reading.

changes to the ActEd Course Notes, Series X Assignments and Question and
Answer Bank that will make them suitable for study for the 2015 exams.

CT6-04: Reinsurance
Page 7
Question 4.2
Find E (Y ) when X has a Pareto distribution with parameters   200 and   6 , and
M  80 .
Under excess of loss reinsurance, the reinsurer will pay Z where:
Ï0
Z =Ì
ÓX - M
if X £ M
if X > M
With a retention level of M , the mean amount paid by the reinsurer is:
•
E (Z ) =
Ú ( x - M ) f ( x ) dx
(1.3)
M
( )
Similarly, we can calculate E Z 2 using:
•
( ) = Ú (x - M )
E Z

f ( x)dx
M

Then var ( Z ) = E Z 2 - ÈÎ E ( Z )˘˚ .
More generally, the moment generating function of Z , the amount paid by the
reinsurer, is:
( )

M Z (t ) = E etZ = Ú

The reinsurer’s conditional claims distribution
Now consider reinsurance (once again) from the point of view of the reinsurer.
The reinsurer may have a record only of claims that are greater than M. If a claim
is for less than M the reinsurer may not even know a claim has occurred. The
reinsurer thus has the problem of estimating the underlying claims distribution
when only those claims greater than M are observed. The statistical terminology
is to say that the reinsurer observes claims from a truncated distribution.
In this case the values observed by the reinsurer relate to a conditional distribution,
since the numbers are conditional on the original claim amount exceeding the retention
limit.

CT6-04: Reinsurance
Let W be the random variable with this truncated distribution. Then:
W = X -M|X >M
Suppose that the underlying claim amounts have PDF f ( x ) and CDF F ( x ) .
Suppose that the reinsurer is only informed of claims greater than the retention
M and has a record of w = x  M. What is the PDF g(w) of the amount, w, paid by
the reinsurer?
The argument goes as follows:
P (W < w ) = P ( X < w + M | X > M )
=
P ( X < w + M and X > M )
P(X > M)
=
P (M < X < w + M )
P(X > M)
=
ÚM
=
F (w + M ) - F (M )
1 - F (M )
w +M
f (x )
dx
1 - F (M )
(using Bayes' Formula)
(since F (M ) = P(X < M ))
This derivation also uses the result:
b
P (a < X < b) = Ú f ( x) dx = F (b) - F (a)
a
Differentiating w.r.t. w, the PDF of the reinsurer’s claims is
g (w ) =
f (w + M )
, w > 0.
1 - F (M )
(1.4)
Note that this is just the original PDF applied to the gross amount w + M , divided by
the probability that the claim exceeds M .
Question 4.3
Using the notation above, if X is Exp(  ) , find the distribution of W.
