A proof of a conjecture in the Cramér-Lundberg model with investments

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the Cramér-Lundberg model with investments, where the price of the invested risk asset follows a geometric Brownian motion with drift aa and volatility σ>0.σ> 0. By assuming there is a cap on the claim sizes, we prove that the probability of ruin has at least an algebraic decay rate if 2a/σ2>12a/σ^2 > 1. More importantly, without this assumption, we show that the probability of ruin is certain for all initial capital uu, if 2a/σ2≤12a/σ^2 \le 1.
