Model Ambiguity in Risk Sharing with Monotone Mean‑Variance
This study addresses a novel risk-sharing problem where an agent maximizes expected wealth under ambiguity, penalized by a chi-squared model ambiguity. The framework generalizes monotone mean-variance preferences and accommodates multiple reference models for applications like climate risk. Explicit solutions are derived for the insurer’s optimal risk-sharing strategy, decision measure, and wealth process, which depends linearly on auxiliary processes linked to Radon-Nikodym derivatives. The model penalization parameter affects wealth variance, and the optimal strategy considers the counterparty’s model and premium. Future work could explore Lévy-Itô processes, alternative divergences, or a Stackelberg game framework.
