from mass risk to large risks
insurance is “the contribution of the many to the misfortune of the few”.
1. judicially, an insurance contract can be valid only if claim occurrence satisfy
some randomness property,
2. the “game rule” (using the expression from Berliner (Prentice-Hall, 1982),
i.e. legal framework) should remain stable in time,
3. the possible maximum loss should not be huge, with respect to the insurer’s
solvency,
4. the average cost should be identifiable and quantifiable,
5. risks could be pooled so that the law of large numbers can be used
(independent and identically distributed, i.e. the portfolio should be
homogeneous),
6. there should be no moral hazard, and no adverse selection,
7. there must exist an insurance market, in the sense that demand and supply
should meet, and a price (equilibrium price) should arise.

High variance, small portfolio, or nonindependence implies more volatility, and
therefore more capital requirement.

basics on extreme value theory
When modeling large claims (industrial fire, business interruption,...) : extreme
value theory framework is necessary.
The Pareto distribution appears naturally when modeling observations over a
given threshold,
F(x) = P(X ≤ x) = 1 −
x
x0
b
, where x0 = exp(−a/b)
Then equivalently log(1 − F(x)) ∼ a + b log x, i.e. for all i = 1, ..., n,
log(1 − Fn(Xi)) ∼ a + b · log Xi.
Remark : if −b ≥ 1, then EP(X) = ∞, the pure premium is infinite.
The estimation of b is a crucial issue (see Zajdenweber (JRI, 1998) or from
Charpentier (BFA, 2005).)

Mortality/mortality risk :
• deviation of the trend (e.g. consequence of obesity)
• one off deviation (e.g. avian flu, Spanish influenza)
Natural catastrophe risk :
• wind related (e.g. hurricanes in Florida or winter storms in Europe)
• flood related (e.g. Paris)
• soil related (e.g. earthquakes in California or Japan, or volcanic eruptions)
Man-made disasters :
• terrorism (e.g. 9/11)
• institutional investors : pension funds, (re)insurance ?
• financial markets ?
• governments ?

the pure premium as a technical benchmark
Pascal, Fermat, Condorcet, Huygens, d’Alembert in the XVIIIth century
proposed to evaluate the “produit scalaire des probabilit´es et des gains”,
< p, x >=
n
i=1
pixi =
n
i=1
P(X = xi) · xi = EP(X),
based on the “r`egle des parties”.
For Qu´etelet, the expected value was, in the context of insurance, the price that
guarantees a financial equilibrium.
From this idea, we consider in insurance the pure premium as EP(X). As in
Cournot (1843), “l’esp´erance math´ematique est donc le juste prix des chances”
(or the “fair price” mentioned in Feller (AS, 1953)).
Problem : Saint Peterburg’s paradox, i.e. infinite mean risks (cf. natural
catastrophes)
33

For a positive random variable X, recall that EP(X) =

from pure premium to distorted premiums (Wang)
Rg(X) = xdg ◦ P = g(P(X > x))dx
where g : [0, 1] → [0, 1] is a distorted function.
Example
• if g(x) = I(X ≥ 1 − α) Rg(X) = V aR(X, α),
• if g(x) = min{x/(1 − α), 1} Rg(X) = TV aR(X, α) (also called expected
shortfall), Rg(X) = EP(X|X > V aR(X, α)).
See D’Alembert (1754), Schmeidler (PAMS, 1986, E, 1989), Yaari (E, 1987),
Denneberg (KAP, 1994)... etc.
Remark : Rg(X) will be denoted Eg ◦ P. But it is not an expected value since
Q = g ◦ P is not a probability measure.

pricing options in complete markets : the binomial case
In complete and arbitrage free markets, the price of an option is derived using
the portfolio replication principle : two assets with the same payoff (in all
possible state in the world) have necessarily the same price.
Consider a one-period world,
risk free asset 1 → (1+r), and risky asset S0 → S1 =


Su = S0u( increase, d > 1)
Sd = S0d( decrease, u < 1)
The price C0 of a contingent asset, at time 0, with payoff either Cu or Cd at time
1 is the same as any asset with the same payoff. Let us consider a replicating
portfolio, i.e. 


α (1 + r) + βSu = Cu = max {S0u − K, 0}
α (1 + r) + βSd = Cd = max {S0d − K, 0}

pricing options in complete markets : the binomial case
The only solution of the system is
β =
Cu − Cd
S0u − S0d
and α =
1
1 + r
Cu − S0u
Cu − Cd
S0u − S0d
.
C0 is the price at time 0 of that portfolio.
C0 = α + βS0 =
1
1 + r
(πCu + (1 − π) Cd) where π =
1 + r − d
u − d
(∈ [0, 1]).
Hence C0 = EQ
C1
1 + r
where Q is the probability measure (π, 1 − π), called risk
neutral probability measure.

Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance.
pricing options in incomplete markets
• the market is not complete, and catastrophe (or mortality risk) cannot be
replicated,
• the guarantees are not actively traded, and thus, it is difficult to assume
no-arbitrage
• underlying diffusions are not driven by a geometric Brownian motion process

Agenda
A short introduction to insurance risks
• Catastrophe and (very) large risks
• Mortality risks, from short term pandemic to long term risk
Insurance linked securities
• Insurance linked securities
• Catastrophe or mortality bonds
Financial versus insurance pricing
• Insurance : from pure premium to other techniques
• Finance : from complete to incomplete markets
Pricing Insurance linked
• Distorted premium
• Indifference utility

pricing insurance linked securities using distorted premium
Lane (AB, 2000) proposed to fit an econometric model on yield spreads (ER,
excess return), as a function of the CEL (conditional expected loss) and the PFL
(probability of first loss), as a Cobb-Douglas function,
ER = 0.55 · PFL0.495
· CEL0.574
.
Wang (GPRI, 2004) Assume that X has a normal distribution (where µ and σ
are functions of CEL and PFL), and with λ = 0.45...

using expected utility principle to price securities
Consider
– a risk-free bond,
– a risky traded asset, with price Xt,
– a non traded insurance index, with value St
We want to price the option with payoff payoff (ST − K)+.
In complete market (the index is traded), we price a replicating portfolio.
In incomplete market, we create a portfolio δ = (α, β) of tradable assets which
should not be too far from the true payoff. See the super-replication price or risk
minimization principle idea.
If X is a random payoff, the classical Expected Utility based premium is obtain
by solving
u(ω, X) = U(ω − π) = EP(U(ω − X)).
53
Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance.
using expected utility principle to price securities
Consider an investor selling an option with payoff X at time T,
– either he keeps the option, uδ (ω, 0) = supδ∈A EP U(ω + (δ · S)T ) ,
– either he sells the option, uδ (ω + π, X) = supδ∈A EP U(ω + (δ · S)T − X) .
The price obtained by indifference utility is the minimum price such that the two
quantities are equal, i.e.
π(ω, X) = inf {π ∈ R such that uδ (ω + π, X) − uδ (ω, 0) 0} .
This price is the minimal amount such that it becomes interesting for the seller
to sell the option : under this threshold, the seller has a higher utility keeping the
option, and not selling it.
54
Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance.
conclusion
• classical finance, π = EP[(S − d)+]
• classical insurance, π = e−rT
EQ[(ST − K)+]
• large risks, expected utility approach U(ω − π) = EP(U(ω − [S − d]+))
• large risks, dual (Yaari) approach ω − π = Eg◦P(ω − S)
• incomplete market, dual (Yaari) approach, i.e. Esscher
• incomplete market, expected utility approach, i.e. indifference utility
=⇒ a general framework for pricing of both insurance and financial risks.
E.g. capital requirements of Basle II and Solvency II.
55
Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance.
perspectives
• diversification issues
Consider two risks S1 and S2, π1+2 = EP[S1 + S2] = EP[S1] + EP[S2] = π1 + π2
What about other premiums ? E.g. Eg◦P[S1 + S2]
?
= Eg◦P[S1] + Eg◦P[S2]
For some non subadditive risk measure (e.g. VaR) π1+2>π1 + π2.
• econometric and heterogeneity issues
In the case of pure premium, EP(S) = EP
N
i=1
Yi = EP(N)
frequency
× EP(Y )
average cost
With heterogeneity πi = EP(S|X = xi) = EP(N|X = xi) × EP(Y |X = xi)
What about other premiums ?

Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance. basics on extreme value theory When modeling large claims (industrial fire, business interruption,...) : extreme value theory framework is necessary. The Pareto distribution appears naturally when modeling observations over a given threshold, F(x) = P(X ≤ x) = 1 − x x0 b , where x0 = exp(−a/b) Then equivalently log(1 − F(x)) ∼ a + b log x, i.e. for all i = 1, ..., n, log(1 − Fn(Xi)) ∼ a + b · log Xi. Remark : if −b ≥ 1, then EP(X) = ∞, the pure premium is infinite. The estimation of b is a crucial issue (see Zajdenweber (JRI, 1998) or from Charpentier (BFA, 2005).) 19

Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance. the pure premium as a technical benchmark Pascal, Fermat, Condorcet, Huygens, d’Alembert in the XVIIIth century proposed to evaluate the “produit scalaire des probabilit´es et des gains”, < p, x >= n i=1 pixi = n i=1 P(X = xi) · xi = EP(X), based on the “r`egle des parties”. For Qu´etelet, the expected value was, in the context of insurance, the price that guarantees a financial equilibrium. From this idea, we consider in insurance the pure premium as EP(X). As in Cournot (1843), “l’esp´erance math´ematique est donc le juste prix des chances” (or the “fair price” mentioned in Feller (AS, 1953)). Problem : Saint Peterburg’s paradox, i.e. infinite mean risks (cf. natural catastrophes) 33

Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance. pricing options in complete markets : the binomial case In complete and arbitrage free markets, the price of an option is derived using the portfolio replication principle : two assets with the same payoff (in all possible state in the world) have necessarily the same price. Consider a one-period world, risk free asset 1 → (1+r), and risky asset S0 → S1 =    Su = S0u( increase, d > 1) Sd = S0d( decrease, u < 1) The price C0 of a contingent asset, at time 0, with payoff either Cu or Cd at time 1 is the same as any asset with the same payoff. Let us consider a replicating portfolio, i.e.    α (1 + r) + βSu = Cu = max {S0u − K, 0} α (1 + r) + βSd = Cd = max {S0d − K, 0} 42

C0 is the price at time 0 of that portfolio. C0 = α + βS0 = 1 1 + r (πCu + (1 − π) Cd) where π = 1 + r − d u − d (∈ [0, 1]). Hence C0 = EQ C1 1 + r where Q is the probability measure (π, 1 − π), called risk neutral probability measure. 43

Those prices can then be used to price any contingent claim. E.g. the final price should be 150 × 0.8333 + 10 × 0.119 = 126.19. 46

In complete market (the index is traded), we price a replicating portfolio. In incomplete market, we create a portfolio δ = (α, β) of tradable assets which should not be too far from the true payoff. See the super-replication price or risk minimization principle idea. If X is a random payoff, the classical Expected Utility based premium is obtain by solving u(ω, X) = U(ω − π) = EP(U(ω − X)). 53

Arthur CHARPENTIER - Pricing insurance linked securities: interplay between finance and insurance. using expected utility principle to price securities Consider an investor selling an option with payoff X at time T, – either he keeps the option, uδ (ω, 0) = supδ∈A EP U(ω + (δ · S)T ) , – either he sells the option, uδ (ω + π, X) = supδ∈A EP U(ω + (δ · S)T − X) . The price obtained by indifference utility is the minimum price such that the two quantities are equal, i.e. π(ω, X) = inf {π ∈ R such that uδ (ω + π, X) − uδ (ω, 0) 0} . This price is the minimal amount such that it becomes interesting for the seller to sell the option : under this threshold, the seller has a higher utility keeping the option, and not selling it. 54
