Reducing risk by merging counter-monotonic risks / Ka Chun Cheung...[et.al]
Sumario: In this article, we show that some important implications concerning comonotonic couples and corresponding convex order relations for their sums cannot be translated to counter-monotonicity in general. In a financial context, it amounts to saying that merging counter-monotonic positions does not necessarily reduce the overall level of risk. We propose a simple necessary and sufficient condition for such a merge to be effective. Natural interpretations and various characterizations of this condition are given. As applications, we develop cancelation laws for convex order and identify desirable structural properties of insurance indemnities that make an insurance contract universally marketable, in the sense that it is appealing to both the policyholder and the insurer
