Abstract

In this paper, we consider a time-dependent risk model with a Brownian perturbation. In this model, there is a dependence structure between the claim sizes and their corresponding interarrival times. Assuming the claim sizes have subexponential distributions, we obtain the asymptotic lower bound of the finite-time ruin probability. When the claim sizes have distributions from the class L∩D , the asymptotic upper bound of the finite-time ruin probability has been presented. These results confirm that when the claim sizes are heavy-tailed, the asymptotics of the finite-time ruin probability of this time-dependent model are insensitive to the Brownian perturbation.
