The problem of evaluating the solvency of insurance companies is tackled by means of a non-parametric statistical model, constructed using decision-tree techniques. The model is tested on a sample of Italian non-life insurance companies and its performance over the test period compared with those of linear and quadratic parametric models. In the last part a probabilistic model is proposed focused on classical Risk-Theory and implemented using simulation techniques.

Abstract
The problem of evaluating the solvency of insurance companies is tackled by means of a non-parametric statistical model, constructed using decision-tree techniques. The model is tested on a sample of Italian non-life insurance companies and its performance over the test period compared with those of linear and quadratic parametric models. In the last part a probabilistic model is proposed focused on classical Risk-Theory and implemented using simulation techniques.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
