Abstract

This article considers the compound Poisson insurance risk model perturbed by diffusion with investment. We assume that the insurance company can invest its surplus in both a risky asset and the risk-free asset according to a fixed proportion. If the surplus is negative, a constant debit interest rate is applied. The absolute ruin probability function satisfies a certain integro-differential
equation. In various special cases, closed-form solutions are obtained, and numerical illustrations are provided.
