Summary: In this paper, we study bonus systems in an open portfolio, i.e. we consider that a policyholder can transfer his policy to a different insurance company at any time. We make use of inhomogeneous Markov chains to model the system and show, under reasonable assumptions, that the stationary distribution is independent of the market shares, and is easily calculated.
