  • [hal-00412977] A link between wave governed random motions and ruin processes
    10 juin 2026
    This article establishes a link between hitting times associated with the risk process (time of ruin) and wave governed random motions, which are widely used in physics. Concerning risk theory, another link holds between processes corresponding to models called positive and negative risk sums. Some classical results appear to be strongly interconnected. An original algorithm is proposed for computing finite-time ruin probabilities in renewal non-Poissonian risk model with exponential claims. Concerning wave-governed random motions, we analyze the distribution of the maxima of the processes. New bounds are directly derived from risk theory and appear to be more accurate than the ones proposed recently in the probabilistic literature. Finally, we propose applications of these notions in finance.
  • [hal-04682666] The adoption of smart services: do privacy concerns, trust in benevolence and usage experience matter?
    30 août 2024
    Purpose The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence of service provider benevolence trust and privacy concerns on the intention to adopt smart services (SS), in line with the privacy paradox. It also seeks to analyze the role of smart connected product (SCP) usage, between current and potential users. Design/methodology/approach The study specifically focuses on one type of SS: smart-connected car insurance based on the “pay as you drive” and/or “pay how you drive” principle. Data were collected through an online survey of 362 French drivers. Hypotheses are tested using structural equation modeling and a multigroup confirmatory factor analysis. Findings The results show that trust in the benevolence of the service providers positively influences the intention to adopt SS, regardless of how familiar consumers are with SCP. Conversely, privacy concerns have a negative impact on such intention, but this effect only occurs among consumers who already own SCP. Practical implications From a managerial perspective, this research could help service providers to successfully develop and promote SS, by establishing a relationship based on benevolence and transparency regarding the use of personal information. In addition, managers should promote SS differently when addressing SCP users, seeking to reassure them or avoid addressing privacy concerns. Originality/value Our study adds to the privacy paradox theoretical framework by empirically analyzing drivers of SS adoption. It highlights the key but distinct roles of privacy concerns and benevolence trust.
  • [hal-01582574] Adaptive Robust Control Under Model Uncertainty
    6 septembre 2017
    In this paper we propose a new methodology for solving an uncertain stochastic Marko-vian control problem in discrete time. We call the proposed methodology the adaptive robust control. We demonstrate that the uncertain control problem under consideration can be solved in terms of associated adaptive robust Bellman equation. The success of our approach is to the great extend owed to the recursive methodology for construction of relevant confidence regions. We illustrate our methodology by considering an optimal portfolio allocation problem, and we compare results obtained using the adaptive robust control method with some other existing methods.
  • [hal-00870492] Density approach in modelling successive defaults
    24 octobre 2013
    We apply the default density framework developed in El Karoui et al. \cite{ejj1} to modelling of multiple defaults, which can be adapted to both top-down and bottom-up models. We present general pricing results and establish links with the classical intensity approach. Explicit models are also proposed by using the methods of change of probability measure or dynamic copula.
  • [hal-01205753] Dynamics of multivariate default system in random environment
    16 novembre 2016
    We consider a multivariate default system where random environmental information is available. We study the dynamics of the system in a general setting and adopt the point of view of change of probability measures. We also make a link with the density approach in the credit risk modelling. In the particular case where no environmental information is concerned, we pay a special attention to the phenomenon of system weakened by failures as in the classical reliability system.
  • [hal-00768526] Partial Splitting of Longevity and Financial Risks: The Longevity Nominal Choosing Swaptions
    21 décembre 2012
    In this paper, we introduce a new structured financial product: the so-called Life Nominal Chooser Swaption (LNCS). Thanks to such a contract, insurers could keep pure longevity risk and transfer a great part of interest rate risk underlying annuity portfolios to financial markets. Before the issuance of the contract, the insurer determines a confidence band of survival curves for her portfolio. An interest rate hedge is set up, based on swaption mechanisms. The bank uses this band as well as an interest rate model to price the product. At the end of the first period (e.g. 8 to 10 years), the insurer has the right to enter into an interest rate swap with the bank, where the nominal is adjusted to her (re-forecasted) needs. She chooses (inside the band) the survival curve that better fits her anticipation of future mortality of her portfolio (during 15 to 20 more years, say) given the information available at that time. We use a population dynamics longevity model and a classical two-factor interest rate model %two-factor Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM) model for interest rates to price this product. Numerical results show that the option offered to the insurer (in terms of choice of nominal) is not too expensive in many real-world cases. We also discuss the pros and the cons of the product and of our methodology. This structure enables insurers and financial institutions to remain in their initial field of expertise.
  • [hal-00417800] Understanding, Modeling and Managing Longevity Risk: Key Issues and Main Challenges
    16 juillet 2010
    This article investigates the latest developments in longevity risk modelling, and explores the key risk management challenges for both the financial and insurance industries. The article discusses key definitions that are crucial for the enhancement of the way longevity risk is understood; providing a global view of the practical issues for longevity-linked insurance and pension products that have evolved concurrently with the steady increase in life expectancy since 1960s. In addition, the article frames the recent and forthcoming developments that are expected to action industry-wide changes as more effective regulation, designed to better assess and efficiently manage inherited risks, is adopted. Simultaneously, the evolution of longevity is intensifying the need for capital markets to be used to manage and transfer the risk through what are known as Insurance-Linked Securities (ILS). Thus, the article will examine the emerging scenarios, and will finally highlight some important potential developments for longevity risk management from a financial perspective with reference to the most relevant modelling and pricing practices in the banking industry.
  • [hal-00712897] Stochastic and Tychastic Approaches to Guaranteed ALM Problem
    28 juin 2012
    Unlike traditional valuation methods, viability theory provides tools for eradicating the risk, by determining the minimum initial capital that would meet the commitments of the investor, regardless market developments. In this study, we compare two approaches to risk assessment within a framework of asset-liability management (ALM) of a guaranteed fund. The optimal allocation of assets for such funds is determined initially by the classical portfolio insurance (thus with a statistical evaluation of risk) and then in a second step, by tools of viability theory. Although the results from the two approaches are not strictly comparable in terms of numerical point of view (as in both cases the goals are different in nature), this study offers, on a practical example of ALM management, two radically different philosophies: one is the statistical evaluation of risk, based on probabilistic models, while the other one eradicates risk, using viability theory.
  • [halshs-01663724] Workshop Synthesis: Comparing and Combining Survey Modes
    15 décembre 2017
    This paper summarizes the discussions held during an in-depth six-hour workshop on the challenges of combining data from different survey modes with the anticipated aim of identifying current research needs. The main theme of the workshop was mixing survey modes as a way to meet the challenge of low response rates. However, the use of multi-mode surveys introduces new sources of bias: not all households have access to certain survey media (coverage bias); the response rate using one or another of the survey modes is correlated with social demographics (non-response bias); the sampling frame is dependent on the mode (sampling bias) or the instrument itself may affect the responses (measurement bias). The aim of this report is present the workshop's discussion on the identification of research needs with related to combining data from different survey modes.
  • [hal-01171395] Impact of dependence on some multivariate risk indicators
    4 juillet 2015
    The minimization of some multivariate risk indicators may be used as an allocation method, as proposed in Cénac et al. [6]. The aim of capital allocation is to choose a point in a simplex, according to a given criterion. In a previous paper [17] we proved that the proposed allocation technique satisfies a set of coherence axioms. In the present one, we study the properties and asymptotic behavior of the allocation for some distribution models. We analyze also the impact of the dependence structure on the allocation using some copulas.

    28 janvier 2020
    Cet article vise à explorer les tensions paradoxales présentes dans les PME axées sur la durabilité et à forte croissance, ainsi que les pratiques mises en œuvre pour faire face à ces tensions. La recherche repose sur l’étude d’un cas unique, une PME française pionnière du secteur bio. L’analyse de ce cas permet d’identifier quatre tensions paradoxales majeures, qui s’intensifient de manière progressive durant les phases de forte croissance : identité normative et utilitariste, croissance interne et externe, exploration et exploitation, désorganisation et structuration. Elle permet de plus de repérer un ensemble de clés stratégiques, qui ont permis aux situations paradoxales de trouver leur équilibre dans des logiques de dialogue et de différenciation.

  • [hal-01366013] A strong hysteretic model of Okun’s Law: theory and a preliminary investigation
    14 septembre 2016
    This paper presents a 'strong hysteretic' version of Okun's Law, that is, a version of the law in which 'history matters.' In this version of the link between fluctuations in unemployment and growth, the most important past growth shock exerts an influence on the current unemployment rate. A theoretical framework is proposed in order to lay the foundations of this version of Okun's Law. In this framework, the hysteresis property arises because a large number of heterogeneous firms discontinuously adjust their activity levels in response to fluctuations in the rate of growth. The foundations having been laid, a method for empirically testing our hysteretic Okun's Law is presented. An algorithm permits construction of a hysteresis operator, which synthesizes, for every moment, the growth shocks that have remained in the memory bank of the unemployment rate. Empirical tests are conducted to assess the empirical relevance of this version of Okun's Law, as compared to the more familiar linear relationship. Empirical results consistent with hysteresis are found for several of the countries in our sample.

    À l’aide d’une expérimentation en laboratoire, cette étude compare les choix individuels en matière d’assurance, en fonction de la présence, ou non, d’une option d’autoprotection permettant de diminuer la probabilité de perte. Les résultats montrent que la possibilité d’engager un effort d’autoprotection, a posteriori, encourage les assurés à choisir des niveaux de couverture plus faibles, révélant ainsi leur préférence pour l’autoprotection par rapport à l’assurance. Cependant, les résultats indiquent également une incohérence dans les choix des individus puisque cet attrait pour l’option d’autoprotection ne se traduit finalement pas par davantage d’efforts d’autoprotection.
  • [hal-04875444] Forecasting reserve risk for temporal dependent losses in insurance
    8 janvier 2025
    Abstract In non‐life insurance, insurance companies aim to accurately assess their reserves in order to fulfil their future obligations. They are based on methods provided by the literature review to evaluate their reserve risk. However, these methods do not take all claim characteristics and ignore the temporal dependence structure of claims, which can affect reserve amounts and lead to delayed payments for policyholders. Therefore, the aim is to investigate the temporal dependence structure among claim amounts (losses) in order to evaluate the accurate amounts of reserves. To achieve this goal, a model called the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Sinistrality Model is proposed, which considers the temporal dependence characteristics of claims. This model is used to estimate model parameters, so the consistency of such an estimate is proven. Additionally, a bootstrap method adjusted to the Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Sinistrality model is proposed for predicting reserves and errors. The results reveal that considering temporal dependence between losses improves reserve distribution estimation and enhances solvency capital requirement. This means that insurance companies will be able to ensure they have sufficient funds available to meet their obligations to policyholders, thereby enhancing customer satisfaction and trust. Additionally, this can assist insurance companies in maintaining better regulatory compliance.
  • [hal-04875582] Reserve modelling and the aggregation of risks using time varying copula models
    9 janvier 2025
    This paper is concerned with the appropriate claim reserving modelling and aggregation of risks in the insurance sector. In fact, literature review provided some methods to evaluate the total amount of reserves and solvency capital of different lines of business. However, these models were derived under the independent losses assumption. Thus, the total amount of reserves and capital may be inaccurate when losses are dependent, as it is the case in practice. In this paper, a novel model is proposed aiming to handle temporal dependence, both between a line of business claim's amounts and between the two lines of business claims. Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Sinistrality model is used to analyze the evolution in time of dependence and time varying copula functions are proposed to aggregate risks. To achieve such purpose, a simulation study, highlighting the impact on reserves and Solvency Capital Requirement, is performed. Results revealed that a diversification effect could be gained on the Solvency Capital when considering time varying dependence structures.

    For a given random sample from some underlying multivariate distribution F we consider the domination of the component-wise maxima by some independent random vector W with underlying distribution function G. We show that the probability that certain components of the sample maxima are dominated by the corresponding components of W can be approximated under the assumptions that both F and G are in the max-domain of attraction of some max-stable distribution function F and G, respectively. We study further some basic properties of the dominated components of sample maxima by W .
  • [halshs-03978273] Analyzing the Difficulties of Continuing Physical Activity during the COVID-19 Crisis in France
    8 février 2023
    Physical activity (PA) and limiting sedentary behavior have been recognized as healthpromoting behaviors for many years. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in lifestyle habits have occurred, causing disparities in PA practice. This article aimed to examine the characteristics of French adults who self-reported having difficulties in continuing their exercise practices during the pandemic. Multivariate logistic regressions were used to test whether certain demographic, morphologic, behavioral (sleep, sedentary lifestyle, extent of household chores), and exercise-related variables were significant predictors of experiencing such difficulties, based on data from an online survey of insurance company members. Difficulties in PA practice were found in 57% of the population surveyed. Several factors were identified as predictors of experiencing difficulties, including a high BMI, the type and number of physical activities usually practiced before lockdown, as well as the number of times per week dedicated to PA. For the employed population, specific factors were additionally decisive: sex, time spent in front of screens, and sleeping. Our results will allow public health policy makers and stakeholders in PA and prevention to better target populations in difficulty during periods of disruption, such as that of the pandemic; thus, allowing them to propose structural or organizational solutions for the continuity of PA practice.
  • [hal-01840057] Modelling net carrying amount of shares for market consistent valuation of life insurance liabilities
    16 juillet 2018
    The attractiveness of insurance saving products is driven, among others, by dividends payments to policyholders and participation in profits. These are mainly constrained by regulatory measures on profit-sharing on the basis of statutory accounts. Moreover, since both prudential and financial reporting regulation require market consistent best estimate measurement of insurance liabilities, cash-flows projection models have to be used for such a purpose in order to derive the underlying financial incomes. Such models are based on Monte-Carlo techniques. The latter should simulate future accounting profit and losses needed for profit-sharing mechanisms. In this paper we deal with impairment losses on equity securities for financial portfolios which rely on instrument-by-instrument assessment (when projection models consider groups of shares). Our motivation is to describe the joint distribution of market value and impairment provision of a book of equity securities, with regard to the French accounting rules for depreciation. The results we obtain enable to improve the ability of projection models to represent such an asymmetric mechanism. Formally, an impairment loss is recognized for an equity instrument if there has been a significant and prolonged decline in its market value below the carrying cost (acquisition value). Such constraints are formalized using an assumption on the dynamics of the equity, and leads to a complex option-like pay-off. Using this formulation, we propose analytical formulas for some quantitative measurements related the impairments losses of a book of financial equities. These are derived on a general framework and some tractable example are illustrated. We also investigate the operational implementation of these formulas and compare their computational time to a basic simulation approach.
  • [hal-03230075] L’intégration des canaux de distribution en contexte de transition digitale : une relecture par la théorie des ressources
    19 mai 2021
    De nombreux distributeurs s’engagent dans une stratégie d’intégration des canaux sous la pression du consommateur qui souhaite désormais une expérience d’achat intégrée. L’intégration des canaux s’inscrit dans le contexte de la transition digitale de l’entreprise et afin de l’aborder, il est nécessaire de se situer à un niveau stratégique. En effet, l’intégration des canaux s’accompagne nécessairement d’une collaboration inter-fonctionnelle. En se basant sur le cadre de la théorie des ressources (RBV), cet article se propose de répondre à la question de recherche suivante : quelles sont les ressources mobilisées par les distributeurs en vue d’une intégration réussie ? Ainsi, l’analyse des ressources mobilisées par les distributeurs est réalisée à partir de la classification des ressources logistiques de Duong et Paché (2015) qui est utilisée comme grille de lecture après adaptation au contexte de l’intégration des canaux. Une étude qualitative exploratoire reposant sur six cas met au jour les ressources déployées dans leurs stratégies d’intégration par des distributeurs français et canadiens dans trois secteurs. Les résultats montrent que les distributeurs mobilisent cinq ressources : des ressources technologiques, organisationnelles, physiques, relationnelles et d’expertise. Cette recherche confronte, pour la première fois, la grille de Duong et Paché (2015) à un terrain empirique et élargit son application au-delà de son contexte d’origine, la logistique. D’un point de vue théorique, cet article fait émerger et structure une réflexion autour des ressources nécessaires au déploiement d’une stratégie omnicanal. D’un point de vue managérial, il souligne la diversité des ressources qui sous-tend les stratégies d’intégration des canaux et fournit aux équipes dirigeantes un outil permettant d’établir un diagnostic des ressources.

    11 mars 2021
    L’objectif de cet article consiste à estimer les facteurs qui déterminent le non usage de la voiture particulière chez les jeunes adultes et de mesurer les effets spécifiques de l’accessibilité et de la forme urbaine du lieu de résidence et du lieu de travail ou d’étude. L’analyse repose sur les données des deux enquêtes ménages déplacements, de 1995 et 2006, de l’agglomération lyonnaise en France, enrichies par des indicateurs de contexte spatial extraits de bases de données géographiques. Trois modes fréquemment utilisés lors des déplacements domicile-travail/étude sont considérés : la voiture particulière, le transport en commun et les modes actifs (marché à pied, vélo). Les résultats des modèles logit multinomiaux montrent que les facteurs socioéconomiques ont un impact significatif sur le choix modal pour les déplacements domicile-travail/étude. Cependant, les caractéristiques des zones de résidence et d’activité ont un pouvoir explicatif encore très important sur le fait de ne pas utiliser la voiture chez les jeunes adultes. L’influence de la structure urbaine, via la densité de population/emploi, les activités de proximité et l’accessibilité au transport en commun, est plus prononcée en 2006 par rapport à 1995. La probabilité de ne pas conduire chez les jeunes adultes dépend encore plus de l’accessibilité et de la forme urbaine du lieu de travail ou d’étude que de celles du lieu de résidence.
  • [hal-03426056] Trends in exposures to physically demanding working conditions in France in 2003, 2010, and 2017
    12 novembre 2021
    Background: To explore trends in social and occupational inequalities in terms of exposures to physically demanding working conditions for French employees. Methods: Our study assessed data from the French national cross-sectional survey of occupational hazards (SUMER) that was conducted in 2003, 2010, and 2017. Trends in the prevalence of several types of physically demanding working conditions (lifting of heavy loads, awkward postures, vibrations, harmful noise, extreme temperatures, and CMR agents) were explored. Temporal changes in associations of individual and job characteristics with these factors of hardship at work were examined using multilevel logistic regressions. Results: We estimated that 53.5% of French workers from all industries in the private sector and in public hospitals were exposed to at least one of the adverse physical working conditions considered in 2017. While the prevalence of exposure to severe physical constraints increased between 2003 and 2017 (+4.2 pp), the exposure associated with a hazardous physical environment decreased sharply (-6.3 pp). These observed trends did not occur similarly for all workers. Several inequalities in exposure increased over the period, particularly to the detriment of blue-collar workers. The situation of shift workers deteriorated in terms of the exposure to vibrations and awkward postures. Conclusion: Our study indicates that more stringent interventions are needed to reduce the prevalence of pronounced physical constraints that contribute to MSDs. Future prevention strategies, in addition to seeking to achieve a general reduction in exposure to all physically demanding working conditions, should aim to reduce disparities that adversely affect vulnerable populations.

    8 janvier 2025
    The present research provides an overview of links between exchange rate volatility and the dynamics of stock market returns in order to identify the influence of several macroeconomic variables on the volatility of stock markets, useful for political decision makers as well as investors to better control the portfolio risk level. More precisely, this research aims to identify the impact of exchange rate volatility on the fluctuations of stock market returns, considering two countries that belong to the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) zone: Tunisia and Turkey. Previous works in the literature used very specified and short periods of study, many important variables were neglected, and most of the earlier research was concentrated on the developed countries. In this research, we integrate several control variables of stock market returns that have not been simultaneously studied before. In addition, we spread out our research period up to 15 years including many events and dynamics. Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) and multiple regression models are first employed. Then, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used and compared with the results of the multiple regression. Hence, the results show that for both Tunisia and Turkey, exchange rate volatility has a significant effect on stock market fluctuations.
  • [hal-05455667] Establishment and maintenance of NRT2.1 inter-individual variability in plants
    13 janvier 2026
    Morphological phenotype and gene expression differences are observed between genetically identical plants grown in the same environment. While we now have a good understanding of the source and consequences of transcriptional differences observed between cells, our knowledge is still very limited regarding variability between multicellular organisms. We characterised this variability using the highaffinity nitrate transporter gene NRT2.1 as a model for high inter-individual transcriptional variability. Thanks to a combination of live imaging and transcriptomics, we show that the differences in expression of this gene between plants are established in young seedlings and maintained for up to three weeks. However, the expression level of NRT2.1 in plants does not permit predicting its expression in the next generation. Our results also indicate that these expression differences could have phenotypic consequences on root growth and nitrate uptake mediated by NRT2.1. Finally, we observed enriched photosynthesis-related functions among genes whose expression correlates with NRT2.1 in individual seedlings. Our study thus demonstrates that a global coordination of the genes involved in the carbon/nitrogen (C/N) balance in plants is established in young seedlings, at different levels in each plant, and maintained over time. Our results also highlight the fact that not all transcriptional regulators of NRT2.1 were identified, and propose UNE10 as a transcription factor for further study focused on its possible involvement in this pathway. This work shows that thanks to single-plant analysis of gene expression, we can gain new knowledge on the mechanisms behind a phenotype of interest that is normally masked in studies performed on pooled plants.
  • [hal-00430178] On finite-time ruin probabilities with reinsurance cycles influenced by large claims
    14 mai 2011
    Market cycles play a great role in reinsurance. Cycle transitions are not independent from the claim arrival process : a large claim or a high number of claims may accelerate cycle transitions. To take this into account, a semi-Markovian risk model is proposed and analyzed. A refined Erlangization method is developed to compute the finite-time ruin probability of a reinsurance company. As this model needs the claim amounts to be Phase-type distributed, we explain how to fit mixtures of Erlang distributions to long-tailed distributions. Numerical applications and comparisons to results obtained from simulation methods are given. The impact of dependency between claim amounts and phase changes is studied.
  • [hal-01134385] Development of a Murine model to dissect the CpG-oligonucleotide-enhancement of the killing of human B Cells by rituximab.
    23 mars 2015
    As a model to dissect the effects of CpG-oligonucleotides (CpG) on rituximab (RTX)-mediated therapeutic killing of autoimmune or malignant B lymphocytes, nude mice were grafted with Daudi human B cells. These mice were then injected with RTX alone or together with CpG. The human B cell aggregate was measured, and the reactive infiltrate analyzed after selective depletion of murine circulating cells. Macrophages (MØ) were identified in infiltrates, but not polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN), as confirmed by the failure of quantitative polymerase chain reaction to detect transcripts for PMN-specific myeloperoxidase in graft extracts. Evidence that MØ predominate over PMN in the anti-B cell RTX-induced immune mechanisms, include the presence of MØ-derived cytokines, and the lack of consequences of depletion of NK cells or B lymphocytes on the CpG-mediated effects on RTX. Interestingly however, removal of circulating PMN reduced the number of MØ attracted by the Daudi B cells. Our interpretation that CpG-induced complement activation is required for PMN to influence MØ was first based on overproduction of C5a in treated mice. This excess was due to the binding of the inhibitor of the alternative pathway of complement to CpG, as demonstrated by the elution of factor H from CpG-affinity-chromatography columns. Thus MØ are recruited to the tissue in the presence of C5a, and exploited locally by RTX.

    4 juin 2010
    This paper is concerned with the determination of credit risk premia of defaultable contingent claims by means of indifference valuation principles. Assuming exponential utility preferences we derive representations of indifference premia of credit risk in terms of solutions of Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (BSDE). The class of BSDEs needed for that representation allows for quadratic growth generators and jumps at random times. Since the existence and uniqueness theory for this class of BSDEs has not yet been developed to the required generality, the first part of the paper is devoted to fill that gap. By using a simple constructive algorithm, and known results on continuous quadratic BSDEs, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of quadratic BSDEs with discontinuities at random times.

    20 janvier 2016
    We model in a dynamic way an insider's private information flow which is successively augmented by a family of initial enlargement of filtrations. According to the a priori available information, we propose several density hypotheses which are presented in hierarchical order from the weakest one to the stronger ones. We compare these hypotheses, in particular, with the Jacod's one, and deduce conditional expectations under each of them by providing consistent expressions with respect to the common reference filtration. Finally, this framework is applied to a default model with insider information on the default threshold and some numerical illustrations are performed.

    18 janvier 2014
    In this paper, we propose some characteristics of next-year impairments in a generic Black & Scholes framework, with one equity security, and under IFRS rules. We derive expression for the probability of impairment event for an equity-security recognized in the available-for-sale (AFS) category. Our decomposition of this event is also useful to retrieve barrier options valuation methods. From there, we obtain an explicit formula for the rst moment of impairment value and its cumulative distribution function, as well as sensitivities. Numerical studies are carried out on concrete securities. We also study a mean-preserving one-criterion proxy used by some insurance practitioners for the next-year impairment losses and discuss its relevance. More generally, our study paves the way for applications of nancial mathematics techniques to accounting issues related to impairments in the IFRS framework.

    Abstract. Assume that claims in a portfolio of insurance contracts are described by independent and identically distributed random variables with regularly varying tails and occur according to a near mixed Poisson process. We provide a collection of results pertaining to the joint asymptotic Laplace transforms of the normalized sums of the smallest and largest claims, when the length of the considered time interval tends to infinity. The results crucially depend on the value of the tail index of the claim distribution, as well as on the number of largest claims under consideration.

    Although interest in the subject of human-resource marketing is growing among researchers and practitioners, there have been remarkably few studies on the effects on employees of how benevolent their organization is. This article looks at the link between the presumption of organizational benevolence and the well-being of employees at work. The results of an empirical study of 595 employees show that the presumption of organizational benevolence is positively linked to employee well-being. The effect is indirect, as it is mediated by the perceived level of organizational support. The existence of a link between employee well-being and intention to quit the company is also confirmed.

    31 mai 2018
    Purpose: The purpose of this research is to highlight the role store brands can play in retail branding. Does an image transfer take place between store brands and the retailer brand? To address this issue, the authors propose to identify and test the dimensions of image transfer from the store brand to the retailer brand. Design/methodology/approach: A qualitative study of 138 consumers helped to complete the attributes of store brand image and retailer brand image identified in the literature. A total of 322 customers of three major French retailers responded to a questionnaire. The data collected were tested in a structural equation model. Findings: Results indicate that store brands have a positive impact on the retailer image. The price image of the store brand is positively related to the retailer price image. The values that customers associated with store brands improve the retailer brand image in terms of its values. Research limitations/implications: Store brands are considered as a whole, without distinction between product categories. The paper focuses on standard store brands only, excluding “premium” store brands. Practical implications: Retailers can find a rationale for investing in their store brand range in order to differentiate themselves from their competitors. Managers should ensure that their store brands' image is seen as congruent with their own retailer brand image. In particular, more attention should be paid to the values reflected by the store brands and the store brands' price image. Originality/value: The results indicate that store brands not only benefit from the strength of the retailer brand, but they also contribute, in a reciprocal way, to the improvement of the retailer image.
