Abstract

Let XX be a real valued random variable with an unbounded distribution FF and let YY be a nonnegative valued random variable with a unbounded distribution GG, which satisfy that \begin{eqnarray*} P(X>x|Y=y)\sim h(y)P(X>x) \end{eqnarray*} holds uniformly for y0y\geq0 as xx\to \infty. Under the condition that G(bx)=o(H(x))\overline{G}(bx)=o(\overline H(x)) holds for all constant b>0b>0, we proved that FL(γ)F\in\mathcal{L}(\gamma) for some γ0\gamma\geq 0 implied HL(γ/βG)H\in \mathcal{L}(\gamma/\beta_G) and that FS(γ)F\in\mathcal{S}(\gamma) for some γ0\gamma\geq 0 implied HS(γ/βG)H\in \mathcal{S}(\gamma/\beta_G), where HH is the distribution of the product XYXY, and βG\beta_G is the right endpoint of GG, that is, βG=sup{y: G(y)<1}(0,],\beta_G=\sup\{y:~G(y)<1\}\in (0,\infty], and when βG=\beta_G=\infty, γ/βG\gamma/\beta_G is understood as 0. Furthermore, in a discrete-time risk model in which the net insurance loss and the stochastic discount factor are equipped with a dependence structure, a general asymptotic formula for the finite-time ruin probability is obtained when the net insurance loss has a subexponential tail.
