摘要：This talk is on a discrete time optimal dividend payout problem with a risk probability criterion. Different from the expected dividends in the existing literature, our emphasis is the probability that total dividends of the insurance company do not reach a given dividend goal before ruin. We aim to find an optimal dividend policy to minimize the probability. In this talk we will show the dividend model based on Markov decision processes, give suitable conditions for computing the value function and optimal policies, identify the property of the value function and the structure of optimal dividend policies, and demonstrate our main results with an example.
