Motivated by recent advances in rough volatility modeling, we introduce affine Volterra processes, defined as solutions of certain stochastic convolution equations with affine coefficients. Classical affine diffusions constitute a special case, but affine Volterra processes are neither semi-martingales, nor Markov processes in general. Nonetheless, their Fourier-Laplace functionals admit exponential-affine representations in terms of solutions of associated deterministic integral equations, extending the well-known Riccati equations for classical affine diffusions. Our findings generalize and simplify recent results in the literature on rough volatility.[-]

This talk will give an overview on the usage of piecewise deterministic Markov processes for risk theoretic modeling and the application of QMC integration in this framework. This class of processes includes several common risk models and their generalizations. In this field, many objects of interest such as ruin probabilities, penalty functions or expected dividend payments are typically studied by means of associated integro-differential equations. Unfortunately, only particular parameter constellations allow for closed form solutions such that in general one needs to rely on numerical methods. Instead of studying these associated integro-differential equations, we adapt the problem in a way that allows us to apply deterministic numerical integration algorithms such as QMC rules.[-]
