Abstract
In this article, we consider a discrete-time insurance risk
model. An autoregressive model is used to model both the claim
process and the premium process. The probability of ruin is
examined in a model with a constant interest rate. Both exponential
and nonexponential upper bounds are obtained for the ruin
probability of an infinite time horizon.
