In this paper we define two stochastic processes that are smaller and greater in usual stochastic order than the Sparre Andersen process. We derive, as a consequence, upper and lower bounds of its marginal distributions, and of the distributions of its first passage times above fixed thresholds. We also present a generalization of these stochastic bounds for risk processes perturbed by diffusion.

Abstract

In this paper we define two stochastic processes that are smaller and greater in usual stochastic order than the Sparre Andersen process. We derive, as a consequence, upper and lower bounds of its marginal distributions, and of the distributions of its first passage times above fixed thresholds. We also present a generalization of these stochastic bounds for risk processes perturbed by diffusion.
