Title: Dependence modeling for multivariate processes with applications in
finance and insurance
Abstract: In the first part of the talk we discuss different methods for
constructing multivariate counting processes and investigate their properties.
As interpretation of these counting processes we have claim arrivals of
different business lines of an insurance company in mind. Some asymptotic
results of Cramer type for ruin probabilities are also shown.
In the second part of the talk we investigate the class of multivariate Levy
processes and characterize dependence properties by means of the Levy measure
and the Levy copula. Comparison results for Levy processes are also given. These
findings are applied to some financial and actuarial models.
