Notas: Sumario: The paper develops an analytical framework to minimize basis risk in parametric insurance by asymmetrically penalizing deviations between actual losses and payouts. Using the concept of expectiles, the authors derive optimal payment schemes for both pure parametric and parametric index insurance. The results establish that optimal compensations correspond to conditional expectiles of the insured's true loss, depending on the relative weight assigned to undercompensation versus overcompensation. The study links expectiles to coherent risk measures and stochastic orderings and proposes regression-based methods for practical implementation. Applications to agricultural insurance and cyber risk illustrate the relevance of the approachRegistros relacionados: En: European Journal of Ageing : social, behavioural and health perspectives. - Cham, Switzerland [etc.] : Springer International Publishing AG, 2021-. - 21/12/2026 Volumen 22 Número 2 - 2026 , 34 p.Materia / lugar / evento: Seguro agrario combinado Gerencia de riesgos Cálculo actuarial Seguro de ciberriesgos Minimización de riesgos Seguros paramétricos Otros autores: Scherer, Matthias Springer Nature Outras classificações: 6
