英文摘要:
Managing unemployment is one of the key issues in social policies. Unemployment insurance schemes are designed to cushion the financial and morale blow of loss of job but also to encourage the unemployed to seek new jobs more pro-actively due to the continuous reduction of benefit payments. In the present paper, a simple model of unemployment insurance is proposed with a focus on optimality of the individual\'s entry to the scheme. The corresponding optimal stopping problem is solved, and its similarity and differences with the perpetual American call option are discussed. Beyond a purely financial point of view, we argue that in the actuarial context the optimal decisions should take into account other possible preferences through a suitable utility function. Some examples in this direction are worked out.

中文摘要:
失业管理是社会政策的关键问题之一。失业保险计划旨在缓解失业对经济和士气的打击,但也鼓励失业者由于福利金的不断减少而更积极地寻找新工作。本文提出了一个简单的失业保险模型,重点研究了个人参与计划的最优性。解决了相应的最优停止问题,并讨论了其与永久美式看涨期权的异同。除了纯粹的财务观点外,我们认为,在精算背景下,最优决策应通过适当的效用函数考虑其他可能的偏好。文中给出了这方面的一些例子。
