During the last two decades, the interest of the actuarial literature in the stochastic orderings has been growing to such a point that they become one of the most important tools to compare the riskiness of different random situations. Our purpose in this note is to derive new results about the opt
In this paper, we derive relations between stop-loss premiums and their associated ruin probabilities by use of the new worse than used (NWU) aging property of the ruin probability. General upper and lower bounds for the stop-loss premium are derived. Also, we get a general upper bound for the ruin
The expected ruin time and the probabilities of ruin are found for the n-player gambler's ruin problem with asymmetric play for certain cases of equal initial fortunes. Independence of the ruin time with which player is ruined is also shown.
