    This paper studies an insurance model where risk process can be controlled by proportional reinsurance. The performance criterion is to choose reinsurance control strategies to bound the ruin probability of a discrete-time process with Markov chain interest. Recursive and integral equations for ruin probabilities are given. Generalized Lundberg inequalities for the ruin probabilities are derived given a constant stationary policy. The relationships between these inequalities are discussed. To illustrate these results some numerical examples are included.
