On two dependent individual risk models

In this paper, we propose two constructions which allow dependence between the risks of an insurance portfolio in the individual risk model. In the first construction, each risk’s experience is influenced by an individual and a collective risk factor, as well as a class factor if the portfolio is divided into different classes. The second construction uses copulas. The impact on the cumulative distribution function of the aggregate claim amount and on the stop-loss premium is presented via numerical examples.
