Summary/Abstract: In this article we review the concept of Lévy processes in risk theory. We emphasize the risk model with gamma process analyzing ruin probability of gamma process. We give an asymptotic behaviour of ruin probabilities and exact formula for finite time ruin probability for gamma process. We also consider models described by the so-called subordinated Levy processes. As a theoretical generalization we investigate supremum distribution of certain stochastic integrals.
