Abstract

We focus on, throughout this paper, convex risk measures defined on Orlicz spaces. In particular, we investigate basic properties of inf-convolutions defined between a convex risk measure and a convex set, and between two convex risk measures. Moreover, we study shortfall risk measures, which are convex risk measures induced by the shortfall risk. By using results on inf-convolutions, we obtain a robust representation result for shortfall risk measures defined on Orlicz spaces under the assumption that the set of hedging strategies has the sequential compactness in a weak sense. We discuss in addition a construction of an example having the sequential compactness.
