When the severity distribution is continuous with density function, numerical calculation for the compound distribution by applying Panjer recursion will involve an approxi- mation of the integration. In order to simplify the numerical algorithms, we apply Bernstein approximation for the continuous severity distribution function and obtain approximated recursive equations, which are used for computing the approximated values of the compound distribution. The theoretical error bound for the approximation is also obtained. Numerical results show that our algorithm provides reliable results.展开更多
