  • Abstract
    This paper proposes an approach to possibilistic risk aversion by means of probabilistic concepts. A notion of probabilistic risk premium is defined as the probabilistic risk premia associated with the uniform distributions on the level sets of a fuzzy number. We prove an approximate computation formula for this indicator and a Pratt-type theorem to compare two agents´ possibilistic risk aversions.
