Asset Pricing Models and Insurance Ratemaking

J. David Cummins

ASTIN Bulletin, 1990, vol. 20, issue 2, 125-166

Abstract: This paper provides an introduction to asset pricing theory and its applications in non-life insurance. The first part of the paper presents a basic review of asset pricing models, including discrete and continuous time capital asset pricing models (the CAPM and ICAPM), arbitrage pricing theory (APT), and option pricing theory (OPT). The second part discusses applications in non-life insurance. Among the insurance models reviewed are the insurance CAPM, discrete time discounted cash flow models, option pricing models, and more general continuous time models. The paper concludes that the integration of actuarial and financial theory can provide major advances in insurance pricing and financial management.
