Asymptotic Analysis of Risk Premia Induced by Law-Invariant Risk Measures

Abstract

We analyze the limiting behavior of the risk premium associated with the Pareto optimal risk sharing contract in an infinitely expanding pool of risks under a general class of law-invariant risk measures encompassing rank-dependent utility preferences. We show that the corresponding convergence rate is typically only $n^{1/2}$ instead of the conventional $n$, with $n$ the multiplicity of risks in the pool, depending upon the precise risk preferences.
