Abstract

In this chapter we show some examples of the optimal value functions and the optimal strategies for the classical risk model. In these examples, the optimal band strategies have one (barrier) or two bands; we have not found examples with more bands in the unbounded dividend payment case. However, when imposing a ceiling on the rate of dividends, band strategies with infinitely many bands can be found (even with claim-size distributions with bounded density); see [12].
