Modeling framework
Probability space: (Ω,F ,P)Claim severity: X : (Ω,F)→ (R>0,B (R>0))Vector of tariff features: R = (R1, . . . ,Rd) with Ri : (Ω,F)→ (R>0,B (R>0))Information of tariff features: G := σ (R1, . . . ,Rd)
Lemma 1 (Expected claim severity)
Given X with E (|X |) 0 we have for P-almost every ω ∈ Ω
E (X |G) (ω) = EκX ,G(ω;·)(idR>0 1(0,u]
)+ EκX ,G(ω;·)
(u1(u,∞)
)+ EκX ,G(ω;·)
((idR>0 − u) 1(u,∞)
). (1)

Conditional probabilities
Motivation: Calculation of EκX ,G(ω;·)(idR>0 1(0,u]
)and EκX ,G
((idR>0 − u) 1(u,∞)
)in the sense of a splicing model.
Definition 2
Let u ∈ R>0 and κX ,G be a regular conditional probability of X given G. We define for all A ∈ B (R>0) andω ∈ Ω
P≤u,ωκX ,G (A) :=∫A
1(0,u] (x)κX ,G (ω; (0, u])
κX ,G (ω; dx) , (2)
if κX ,G (ω; (0, u]) > 0 and P≤u,ωκX ,G (A) := κX ,G (ω; A) otherwise. Also, for all A ∈ B (R>0) and ω ∈ Ω set
P>u,ωκX ,G (A) :=∫A
1(u,∞) (x)κX ,G (ω; (u,∞))
κX ,G (ω; dx) , (3)
if κX ,G (ω; (u,∞)) > 0 and P>u,ωκX ,G (A) := κX ,G (ω; A) otherwise.

Threshold severity model
Aim: Express EκX ,G(ω;·)(idR>0 1(0,u]
)and EκX ,G
((idR>0 − u) 1(u,∞)
)with help of P≤u,ωκX ,G and P
>u,ωκX ,G
.
Theorem 3 (Threshold severity model)
Given X with E (|X |) 0 there exists a regular conditional probability κX ,G of X given Gsuch that for P-almost every ω ∈ Ω it holds
E (X |G) (ω) = κX ,G (ω; (0, u]) EP≤u,ωκX ,G (idR>0) + κX ,G (ω; (u,∞))(u + EP>u,ωκX ,G (idR>0 − u)

Tariff cells
Proposition 4
Given X with E (|X |) 0)and ω ∈ {ω̃ ∈ Ω|P (R = R(ω̃)) > 0} the following holds:
κX ,G (ω,A) = P (X ∈ A|R) (ω) . (5)
Note: For every ω ∈ {R = r} with P (X ≤ u,R = r) > 0 it holds:
P≤u,ωκX ,G (A) = P (X ∈ A|X ≤ u,R = r) , ∀A ∈ B (R>0) .
Assumption 5
The distribution of R is discrete, i.e. there are countably many, pairwisedifferent values x1, x2, . . . such that ∑∞i=1 P (R = xi) = 1.
Example:
North SouthBrand A Cell 1 Cell 2Brand B Cell 3 Cell 4
x1 = (Brand A, North)x2 = (Brand A, South)x3 = (Brand B, North)x4 = (Brand B, South)

Distribution function of a tariff cell
Tariff cell: {R = r}Insured sum given by r1 > uDistribution function of X given by
Fr (x) =
(1− q)Hr (x)Hr (u) , x ≤ u,(1− q) + q Gr (x) , x > u,
with Hr(u) > 0 and Gr(u) = 0.Note:
u independent of rq independent of r

Generalized linear model (GLM)
Density of X is of the form
fX (x ; θ, ϕ) = expxθ − b(θ)
ϕ\ω+ c(x , ϕ, ω)
Gamma distribution:
fX (x ; θ, ϕ)exp(c(x , ϕ, ω)) = exp
xθ + log(−θ)ϕ\ω
With link function g we get:
θ b′−→ E (X |R = r) g−→
d∑i=1
ri αi
Logarithmic link function: E (X |R = r) = g−1(rβ) = erα

Basic claim sizes: Truncated gamma GLM
GLM to model conditional distribution function:
Fr (X ≤ x |X ≤ u) =Hr (min(x , u))
Hr (u)Hr given by gamma distributionWeak convergence + gamma distribution continuous =⇒ uniform convergence:

Extreme claim sizes
Excess distribution:
Fr (X ≤ x |X > u) = Gr (x)
Real damage for policyholder: YDamage for insurer: X := min (Y , r1)Assumption: Real damages over threshold independent of tariff cell, i.e. {Y ∈ A ∩ (u,∞)}independent of {R = r} for all A ∈ B (R>0)Theorem of Pickands, Balkema and de Haan:
