Abstract:

In this paper, stochastic compound Poisson process is employed to value the catastrophic insurance options and model the claim arrival process for catastrophic events, which were written in the loss period , during which the catastrophe took place. Here, a time compound process gives the underlying loss index before and after whose losses are revaluated by inhomogeneous exponential Levy process factor. For this paper, an exponential Levy process is used to evaluate the well-known European call option in order to price Property Claim Services catastrophe insurance based on catastrophe index.

<abstract><p>Catastrophe reinsurance is an important way to prevent and resolve catastrophe risks. As a consequence, the pricing of catastrophe reinsurance becomes a core problem in catastrophic risk management field. Due to the severity of catastrophe loss, the Peak Over Threshold (POT) model in extreme value theory (EVT) is extensively applied to capture the tail characteristics of catastrophic loss distribution. However, there is little research available on the pricing formula of catastrophe excess of loss (Cat XL) reinsurance when the catastrophe loss is modeled by POT. In the

Abstract:

The frequency and severity of climate abnormal change displays an irregular upward cycle as global warming intensifies. Therefore, this paper employs a doubly stochastic Poisson process with Black Derman Toy (BDT) intensity to describe the catastrophic characteristics. By using the Property Claim Services (PCS) loss index data from 2001 to 2010 provided by the US Insurance Services Office (ISO), the empirical result reveals that the BDT arrival rate process is superior to the nonhomogeneous Poisson and lognormal intensity process due to its smaller RMSE, MAE, MRPE, and U and larger E and d.

Abstract:

Purpose: This paper develops a stochastic model to calculate the loss index trigger for catastrophe bonds as alternative instruments for the management of major insured risks, such as natural catastrophe. Methodology: The underlying loss index of catastrophe bonds is the aggregate catastrophe losses reported before the end of certain period. The catastrophe severity is defined as the sum of two random variable: the reported loss amount and incurred-but-not-yet-reported loss amount, and the central hypothesis is that the latter decreases proportionally to a linearly increasing function up to a

AbstractWe present a report on a 5-year-old child with a complex medical and audiologic history who exhibited catastrophic progression in hearing loss. Hearing loss was initially attributed to bacterial meningitis at age 3 months; progression was apparently related to perilymph fistula at age 8 years. Etiologies associated with progressive hearing loss in children as well as signs of progression and monitoring protocols for children at risk for progressive hearing loss are discussed.

Abstract:

The national scale of catastrophic losses risk linked to state catastrophe bonds (SCB) is enormous. It can reduce investors’ interest in buying them because the capital required and the loss probability are also significant. To overcome this, the SCB can be made on a smaller regional scale, known as a regional catastrophe bond (RCB). Through RCBs, the catastrophic loss risk investors bear becomes smaller, which can increase investors’ interest in buying them. Unfortunately, RCB issuance faced a fundamental obstacle, where its complex pricing model needed further study. Therefore, this study ai

This thesis describes the development of a mathematical model for simulating the loss in the mechanical integrity of pressurised hydrocarbon conveying pipelines under fire attack. The model is based on the resolution of the conservation equations using the Method of Characteristics. It accounts for real fluid behaviour, pipeline mechanical strength, as well as phase and flow dependent transient heat transfer effects and frictional pressure losses. Failure is assumed to occur when any one of the simulated triaxial thermal and pressure stresses in the pipeline wall exceed its ultimate tensile st

Abstract:

As climate change continues, climactic extremes are predicted to become more frequent and intense, in some cases resulting in dramatic changes to ecosystems. The effects of climate change on ecosystems will be mediated, in part, by biotic interactions in those ecosystems. However, there is still considerable uncertainty about where and how such biotic interactions will be important in the context of ecosystem disturbance and climactic extremes. Here, I review the role of consumers in seagrass ecosystems and investigate the ecological impacts of an extreme climactic event (marine heat wave) and

Abstract:

This paper estimates the impact of catastrophic natural disasters on economic growth using an event study methodology on a country panel dataset from 1970 to 2019. The severity of the events is determined by the associated mortality. We find that affected economies which, given the way natural disasters are ranked, comprise mainly developing countries, suffer an average loss between 2.1 and 3.7 percentage points (p.p.). The estimated loss is not offset by above-average growth rates in the disasters aftermath. In contrast, when the severity of the events is determined by physical intensity rath

Abstract:

Severe climate-related disasters have already disproportionately affected some of the world’s most vulnerable countries, which are typically some of the least-responsible for the catastrophes. This report highlights the stalemate of international loss and damage support and what can be done to shore up higher-income countries’ responsibilities – starting with COP26.

Abstract:

Based on two hundred and nineteen interviews and qualitative methodologies conducted in July 2019 in the Somali region of Ethiopia, this study examines the drivers of displacement in pastoralist communities of the arid and semi-arid lowland areas of Ethiopia. Following on from the catastrophic droughts that occurred between 2015 and 2017, and in which pastoralists in the region lost up to 80 per cent of their livestock, we found that many still live in camps reliant on aid up to four years later. The report findings show that displacement triggered by drought in Ethiopia is a protracted but sh
