This dynamic reinsurance strategy assumes a retention level that is not constant and depends on the level of the surplus. In a model with inter-occurrence times being generalized Erlang(n)-distributed, we obtain the integro-differential equation for the Gerber-Shiu function. Then, we present the solution for inter-occurrence times exponentially distributed and claim amount phase-type(N). Some examples for exponential and phase-type(2) claim amount are presented. Finally, we show some comparisons between threshold reinsurance and proportional reinsurance.25 p.application/pdfeng(c) Spanish Society of Statistics and Operations Research, 2012ReassegurancesGestió del riscAvaluació del riscAssegurances de vidaSupervivènciaReinsuranceRisk managementRisk assessmentLife insuranceSurvivalRuin probability and time of ruin with a proportional reinsurance threshold strategyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article5822812016-10-20info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
