Abstract

In this paper, we find the upper bound for the tail probability P sup n ? 0 ∑ I = 1 n ξ I > x with random summands ξ 1 , ξ 2 , … having light-tailed distributions. We find conditions under which the tail probability of supremum of sums can be estimated by quantity ? 1 exp { − ? 2 x } with some positive constants ? 1 and ? 2 . For the proof we use the martingale approach together with the fundamental Wald’s identity. As the application we derive a few Lundberg-type inequalities for the ultimate ruin probability of the inhomogeneous renewal risk model.
