Abstract:
In this talk, we are going to present an approach to price wind parametric index insurance using a new PDE method, modeling wind speed with a continuous time Ornstein-Uhlenbeck SDE. We will find the probability distribution function of the first passage time of this wind process and use it to price the wind parametric insurance premiums using the FKE with a barrier.
