Stochastic modeling of mortality rates focuses on fitting linear models to logarithmically adjusted mortality data from … the middle or late ages. Whilst this modeling enables insurers to project mortality rates and hence price mortality … products it does not provide good fit for younger aged mortality. Mortality rates below the early 20’s are important to model …

We present a new way to model age-specific demographic variables with the example of age-specific mortality in the U … jointly with the latent variables underlying mortality of all age classes. In contrast to previous models, a similar … forecasts for particular age classes. A structural analysis of the relationship between age-specific mortality and covariates is …

We analyze how changes in the mandatory pension system and the increasing life expectancy will affect the need for private retirement savings in Finland. The time horizon we consider is that of current young generations. We discuss private retirement savings from the point of view households,...

In this paper we use doubly stochastic processes (or Cox processes) in order to model the random evolution of mortality … investigate the applicability of time-homogeneous a±ne processes in describing the individual's intensity of mortality and the … mortality trend, as well as in forecasting it. We calibrate them to the UK population. Calibrations suggest that, in spite of …
