In this article we consider the surplus process of an insurance company within the Cramer-Lundberg framework. We study the optimal reinsurance strategy and dividend distribution of an insurance company under proportional reinsurance, in…

This paper studies a class of optimal multiple stopping problems driven by L\'evy processes. Our model allows for a negative effective discount rate, which arises in a number of financial applications, including stock loans and real…

We study a version of the stochastic control problem of minimizing the sum of running and controlling costs, where control opportunities are restricted to independent Poisson arrival times. Under a general setting driven by a general L\'evy…

Based on a point of view that solvency and security are first, this paper considers regular-singular stochastic optimal control problem of a large insurance company facing positive transaction cost asked by reinsurer under solvency…

We revisit a stochastic control problem of optimally modifying the underlying spectrally negative Levy process. A strategy must be absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure, and the objective is to minimize the total costs…

We revisit the optimization problem solved in L{\o}kka & Zervos (2008), i.e., the maximization of dividends, in a Brownian risk model, with the possibility (not the obligation) of making capital injections. Following the approach introduced…

We consider an optimal stochastic control problem in which a firm's cash/surplus process is controlled by dividend payments and capital injections. Stockholders aim to maximize their dividend stream minus the cost of injecting capital, if…

We study a De Finetti's optimal dividend and capital injection problem under a Markov additive model. The surplus process without dividend and capital injection is assumed to follow a spectrally positive Markov additive process (MAP).…

The dual risk model is a popular model in finance and insurance, which is often used to model the wealth process of a venture capital or high tech company. Optimal dividends have been extensively studied in the literature for a dual risk…

We revisit an absolutely-continuous version of the stochastic control problem driven by a L\'evy process. A strategy must be absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure and the running cost function is assumed to be convex.…

We introduce a longevity feature to the classical optimal dividend problem by adding a constraint on the time of ruin of the firm. We extend the results in \cite{HJ15}, now in context of one-sided L\'evy risk models. We consider de…

In this paper, we consider the optimal dividend problem for a company. We describe the surplus process of the company by a diffusion model with regime switching. The aim of the company is to choose a dividend policy to maximize the expected…

This paper investigates dividend optimization of an insurance corporation under a more realistic model which takes into consideration refinancing or capital injections. The model follows the compound Poisson framework with credit interest…

Given a spectrally negative L\'evy process and independent Poisson observation times, we consider a periodic barrier strategy that pushes the process down to a certain level whenever it is above it. We also consider the versions with…

Consider two insurance companies (or two branches of the same company) that receive premiums at different rates and then split the amount they pay in fixed proportions for each claim (for simplicity we assume that they are equal). We model…

We consider a diffusive model for optimally distributing dividends, while allowing for Knightian model ambiguity concerning the drift of the surplus process. We show that the value function is the unique solution of a non-linear…

We study a stochastic control problem where the underlying process follows a spectrally negative L\'{e}vy process. A controller can continuously increase the process but only decrease it at independent Poisson arrival times. We show the…

We provide, in a general setting, explicit solutions for optimal stopping problems that involve a diffusion process and its running maximum. Besides, a new feature includes absorbing boundaries that vary with the value of the running…

We give a review of the state of the art with regard to the dividend problem.

The paper deals with a generalization of the risk model with stochastic premiums where dividends are paid according to a multi-layer dividend strategy. First of all, we derive piecewise integro-differential equations for the Gerber--Shiu…
