Investment Guarantees: The New Science of Modeling and Risk Management for Equity-Linked Life Insurance

Description

The object of life insurance is to provide financial security to policyholders and their families. But insurance markets around the world are changing, and policyholders want to enjoy the benefits of equity investments in conjunction with mortality protection. This idea has led to the development of equity-linked life insurance, and has probably left you searching for better ways to model these innovative investment guarantees as well as measure the risk associated with them.

Whether you’re involved with the product design, marketing, pricing and valuation, or risk management of equity-linked insurance, this book has something for you. Investment Guarantees: Modeling and Risk Management for Equity-Linked Life Insurance is a comprehensive guide that combines the econometric analysis of these investment models with their applications in pricing and risk management.

Designed with all equity-linked life insurance practitioners in mind, you’ll find both approaches to risk management of equity-linked insurance–the "actuarial" approach and the dynamic hedging approach–presented, discussed, and extensively illustrated with examples. Investment Guarantees opens with a discussion of various models, moves through modeling techniques, and addresses risk management in a straightforward, accessible manner. This unique resource will:
