%0 Journal Article %A Castaño Martínez, Antonia %A Pigueiras Voces, Gema %A Sordo Díaz, Miguel Ángel %T On a family of risk measures based on largest claims %D 2019 %@ 0167-6687 %U http://hdl.handle.net/10498/33388 %X Given a set of n >= 2 independent and identically distributed claims, the expected average of the n−i largest claims, with 0 <= i<= n−1, is shown to be a distortion risk measure with concave distortion function that can be represented in terms of mixtures of tail value-at-risks with beta mixing distributions. This result allows to interpret the tail value-at-risk in terms of the largest claims of a portfolio of independent claims. As an application, we provide sufficient conditions for stochastic comparisons of premiums in the context of large claims reinsurance. %K risk measure %K premium principle %K order statistics %K stop-loss order %K excess-wealth order %K reinsurance %~ Universidad de Cádiz
