Abstract

Assuming that the claim sizes of an insurance company have a common distribution with gamma-like tail, we study the asymptotic tail behaviour of the reinsured amounts under the ECOMOR and LCR reinsurance treaties, respectively. Our novel results include a precise asymptotic expansion for the tail probability of the reinsured amounts under the ECOMOR treaty and tight asymptotic bounds for the LCR case. As a by-product we derive a precise asymptotic expansion for the tail of the product of independent regularly varying random variables.
