Description: This paper presents a model is which can be used for certain annuities when interest rates and future lifetimes are random. These can be used in determining contingency reserves for possible adverse interest and mortality experience for collections of life annuity contracts. Certain boundary crossing probabilities for the stochastic process component of the model are obtained. From Actuarial Research Clearing House 1991, VOL. 1.

Description: A simplified model adapts very easily to simulation by a computer, and this is what the author has done with several selected pairs of probability distributions in order to calculate the probability of a casualty company's being ruined shortly after its establishment.

Description: This paper derives formulas for obtaining the ruin function and the distribution of total claims of collective risk theory. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1968, Vol. 20, Pt. 1, No. 57.

Description: The purpose of this paper is to explain several actuarial-demographic-statistical techniques and show their application in medical investigations. Actuarial Research Clearing House 1979, VOL. 1

Description: This paper derives a formula for approximating the ruin function of collective risk theory. Use of the ruin function to determine the amount of initial capital needed for a new line of business is discussed. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1969, Vol. 21, Pt. 1, No. 59 AB.

Description: In this paper several probability models for the random amounts of needed long-term care are explained, and one model is used to provide an alternate premium calculation method for certain long-term care coverages. From Actuarial Research Clearing House 1990, VOL. 2.

Description: The subject of this paper is a mathematical model for insurance company risks formed by a linear combination of four stochastic processes recognizing claim patterns, investment performance assumptions, operating expenses and lapse expenses. A discussion of the paper follows. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1978, Vol. 30.
