On Vulnerability Conditional Risk Measures: Comparisons and Applications in Cryptocurrency Market

We introduce a novel class of systemic risk measures, the Vulnerability Conditional risk measures, which try to capture the “tail risk” of a risky position in scenarios where one or more market participants is experiencing financial distress. Various theoretical properties of Vulnerability Condition

Distributionally Robust Insurance under Bregman-Wasserstein Divergence

This paper investigates two optimal insurance contracting problems under distributional uncertainty from the perspective of a potential policyholder, utilizing a Bregman-Wasserstein (BW) ball to characterize the ambiguity set of loss distributions. Unlike the $p$-Wasserstein distance, BW divergence

Optimal design of reinsurance contracts with a continuum of risk assessments

In this article, we employ a principal-agent model to analyze optimal contract design in a monopolistic reinsurance market under adverse selection with a continuum of insurer types. Instead of using the classical expected utility framework, we model each insurer’s risk preference through their VaR a

Self-protection and insurance demand with convex premium principles

In economic analysis, rational decision-makers often take actions to reduce their risk exposure. These actions include purchasing market insurance and implementing prevention measures to modify the shape of the loss distribution. Under the assumption that the insureds’ actions are fully observed by
