      The authors consider the classical model in risk theory, where the individual claim amounts are i.i.d. random variables and the claim number process is a homogeneous Poisson process. They give upper and lower bounds of the infinite-time ruin probability for different cases of information on the claim size distribution. In the following discussion of this paper G. C. Taylor calculates these bounds for a given numerical example and relates the results to some other investigations.
