The rapid growth over recent decades of the impact of natural disasters on economies, especially in vulnerable areas, urges stakeholders to promote innovative solutions involving risk transfers that account for the new risk exposures. These proposed solutions are designed to optimize and...

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 UK mortality data. The fan charts suggest that there are clear …

a multi-population mortality model which includes a cause-specific environment using Archimedean copulae to model … dependence between various groups of causes of death. For this, Dutch data on cause-of-death mortality and cause …-specific mortality data from 14 comparable European countries were used. We find that the inclusion of a common factor to a cause …

In the field of mortality, the Lee–Carter based approach can be considered the milestone to forecast mortality rates …–Carter model, the κ t parameter, describing the mortality trend over time, plays an important role about the future mortality … behavior. The traditional ARIMA process usually used to model κ t shows evident limitations to describe the future mortality …

Estimation of future mortality rates still plays a central role among life insurers in pricing their products and … managing longevity risk. In the literature on mortality modeling, a wide number of stochastic models have been proposed, most … of them forecasting future mortality rates by extrapolating one or more latent factors. The abundance of proposed models …

Pension funds, which manage the financing of a large share of global retirement schemes, need to invest their assets in a diversified manner and over long durations while managing interest rate and longevity risks. In recent years, a new type of investment has emerged, that we call a longevity...
