This paper uses mortality fan charts to illustrate prospective future male mortality. These fan charts show both the most likely path of male mortality and the bands of uncertainty surrounding that path. The fan charts are based on a model of male mortality that is known to provide a good fit to...

Value at Risk (VaR) is used to illustrate the maximum potential loss under a given confidence level, and is just a … single indicator to evaluate risk ignoring any information about income. The present paper will generalize one …-dimensional VaR to two-dimensional VaR with income-risk double indicators. We first construct a double-VaR with (μ,σ 2 ) (or (μ,VaR 2 …

One of the main challenges investors have to face is model uncertainty. Typically, the dynamic of the assets is modeled using two parameters: the drift vector and the covariance matrix, which are both uncertain. Since the variance/covariance parameter is assumed to be estimated with a certain...

The primary objective of this work is to analyze model based Value-at-Risk associated with mortality risk arising from … issued term life assurance contracts and to compare the results with the capital requirements for mortality risk as … determined using Solvency II Standard Formula. In particular, two approaches to calculate Value-at-Risk are analyzed: one …
