Motivation
I How does the not-for-profit insurance facility of the Caribbeancountries (the CCRIF) manage the collective risk?
I The CCRIF partially reinsures the collective risk on reinsurancemarkets.
I The CCRIF supplies mutual insurance contracts to the countriessuch that:
I an additional reserve is built and given back through dividend toeach country when the collective losses are not catastrophic,
I the indemnity for a given country loss is lowered when the collectivelosses are catastrophic.

Questions
I In the context of a community with correlated risks and costlyreinsurance and reserve:
I How should be designed the insurance contracts?
I How much reinsurance should be purchased?
I Literature review:
I Insurance contracts with indemnity contingent on collective losses:Doherty and Schlesinger (1990), Cummins and Mahul (2004),Charpentier and Le Maux (2014).
I Insurance contracts with dividend contingent on collective losses:Borch (1962), Marshall (1974), Doherty and Dionne (1993), Dohertyand Schlesinger (2002).
I In the present paper: insurance contracts with both indemnity anddividend contingent on collective losses.

With λR < λR∗, the optimal contracts are such that:
(i) if λl ′(α) < λl∗: τ = l , ϵ > 0 and π > 0︸ ︷︷ ︸contingent indemnity plus dividend
; τR > 0;
(ii) if λl ′(α) > λl∗: τ < l , ϵ > 0 and π = 0︸ ︷︷ ︸contingent indemnity

With a CARA utility function and λl ′(α) = λl < λl∗, we have:
(i) dαdλl < 0, dτR
dλl > 0 (reserve cost ↗ ⇒ reins. purchase ↗);
(ii) dτR
dδ > 0, dαdδ ? (correlation ↗ ⇒ ins. premium ambiguous).

Conclusion
I We develop a simple model with correlated individual risks within acommunity.
I We take into account that reinsurance and reserve are costly.
I We show that the optimal insurance contract can have bothindemnity and dividend contingent on collective losses.
I We exhibit the example of the Caribbean countries which implementthis type of contract for natural disaster risks.
