Optimal reinsurance under the mean–variance premium principle to minimize the probability of ruin

We consider the problem of minimizing the probability of ruin by purchasing reinsurance whose premium is computed according to the mean–variance premium principle, a combination of the expected-value and variance premium principles. We derive closed-form expressions of the optimal reinsurance strategy and the corresponding minimum probability of ruin under the diffusion approximation of the classical Cramér–Lundberg risk process perturbed by a...
