Abstract

A combined financial and insurance model is introduced. We consider a Black-Scholes financial model with stochastic coefficients. We use a step process with a stochastic intensity and a random transition kernel to model claims. We investigate a stream of liabilities which consists of annuity, death and survival benefits. We define a set of admissible investment strategies for an insurer (an investor) who trades in the financial market and aims to replicate the stream of liabilities.
