The Incorporation of Generalized Linear Models into Bivariate Gaussian Copula and An Application

Abstract

In non-life insurance mathematics, analyses and premium or reserve calculations are carried out in the presence of dependency between the claim variables in recent years. And, thus over- or underestimation of aggregate loss caused by the assumption of dependency between the claim severity and frequency are prevented. The Gaussian copula function, which is frequently used for dependency modeling, is integrated into the marginal generalized linear models to obtain a mixed copula-based regression model called "copula regression". In this study, a copula regression model is created using a bivariate Gaussian copula, Gamma and Poisson marginal generalized linear models for claim severity and frequency, respectively. An application is performed with a simulated data where there is a dependence between the claim severity and frequency using the R package “CopulaRegression”. The importance of the modeling of dependency between claims is investigated by the comparison of the independent and dependent models and the results of application show that the copula regression model in which dependency is considered has lower relative mean square errors compared the independent marginal generalized linear models.
