Title: Hawkes processes, Malliavin calculus, and application to cyber-insurance derivatives Authors:  Caroline Hillairet - CREST, Ensae Paris (France) [presenting]
Abstract: An expansion formula is provided for the valuation of reinsurance contracts (such as stop-loss contracts) whose payoff depends on a cumulative loss indexed by a Hawkes process. It can be applied to cyber-insurance contracts, as the times of occurrence of cyber claims exhibit self-exciting behaviour. The methodology relies on the Poisson embedding representation and Malliavin calculus. The expansion formula involves the addition of jumps at deterministic times to the Hawkes process in the spirit of the integration by parts formula for Poisson functional. From the actuarial point of view, these processes can be seen as stressed scenarios. From a theoretical point of view, Malliavin calculus is a useful and original tool to provide new results on Hawkes processes.
