In this paper, we consider a Markov-modulated risk model (also called Markovian regime switching insurance risk model). Follow Asmussen (2000, 2003), by using the theory of Markov additive process, an exponential martingale is constructed and Lundberg-type upper bounds for the joint distribution of surplus immediately before and at ruin are obtained. As a natural corollary, bounds for the distribution of the deficit at ruin are obtained. We also present some numerical results to illustrate the tightness of the bound obtained in this paper.
