Robust distortion riskmetrics over Bregman--Wasserstein balls and their intersections

We study the worst-case values of distortion riskmetrics over Bregman–Wasserstein balls around a reference distribution. Unlike the squared $2$-Wasserstein distance, Bregman–Wasserstein divergences can penalize upward and downward deviations differently. Our main result applies to generalized dist

Higher moments under dependence uncertainty with applications in insurance

Recent studies have highlighted the significance of higher-order moments - such as coskewness - in portfolio optimization within the financial domain. This paper extends that focus to the field of actuarial science by examining the impact of these moments on key actuarial applications. In the first

Robust distortion risk metrics and portfolio optimization

We establish sharp upper and lower bounds for distortion risk metrics under distributional uncertainty. The uncertainty sets are characterized by four key features of the underlying distribution: mean, variance, unimodality, and Wasserstein distance to a reference distribution. We first examine very
