Abstract

In this work-in-progress, we consider perturbed risk processes that have an underlying Markovian structure, including Markovian risk processes, and Sparre-Andersen risk processes when both inter claim times and claim sizes are phase-type. We apply the Erlangization method to this risk process in order to obtain an accurate approximation of the finite time ruin probability. In addition, we recognize a repeating structure in the probability matrices we work with. This is the key element in developing more efficent algorithms for the computation of the ruin probabilities. Several numerical examples are present to illustrate the model.
