Abstract: A reinsurance contract should address the conflicting interests of the insurer and reinsurer. Most of existing optimal reinsurance contracts only considers the interests of one party. This article combines the proportional and stop-loss reinsurance contracts and introduces a new reinsurance contract called proportional-stop-loss reinsurance. Using the balanced loss function, unknown parameters of the proportional-stop-loss reinsurance have been estimated such that the expected surplus for both the insurer and reinsurer are maximized. Several characteristics for the new reinsurance are provided.
