CTE {ReIns}

Conditional Tail Expectation

Description

Compute Conditional Tail Expectation (CTE) CTE_{1-p} of the fitted spliced distribution.

Usage

CTE(p, splicefit)

ES(p, splicefit)

Arguments

p

The probability associated with the CTE (we estimate CTE_{1-p}).

splicefit

A SpliceFit object, e.g. output from SpliceFitPareto, SpliceFiticPareto or SpliceFitGPD.

Details

The Conditional Tail Expectation is defined as

CTE_{1-p} = E(X | X>Q(1-p)) = E(X | X>VaR_{1-p}) = VaR_{1-p} + \Pi(VaR_{1-p})/p,

where \Pi(u)=E((X-u)_+) is the premium of the excess-loss insurance with retention u.

If the CDF is continuous in p, we have CTE_{1-p}=TVaR_{1-p}= 1/p \int_0^p VaR_{1-s} ds with TVaR the Tail Value-at-Risk.

See Reynkens et al. (2017) and Section 4.6 of Albrecher et al. (2017) for more details.

The ES function is the same function as CTE but is deprecated.

Value

Vector with the CTE corresponding to each element of p.
