ABSTRACT The task of modeling claim severities is addressed when data is not consistent with the classical regression assumptions. This framework is common in several lines of business within insurance and reinsurance, where catastrophic losses or heterogeneous sub-populations result in data difficult to model. Their correct analysis is required for pricing insurance products, and some of the most prevalent recent specifications in this direction are mixture-of-experts models. This paper proposes a regression model that generalizes the latter approach to the phase-type distribution setting. More specifically, the concept of mixing is extended to the case where an entire Markov jump process is unobserved and where states can communicate with each other. The covariates then act on the initial probabilities of such underlying chain, which play the role of expert weights. The basic properties of such a model are computed in terms of matrix functionals, and denseness properties are derived, demonstrating their flexibility. An effective estimation procedure is proposed, based on the EM algorithm and multinomial logistic regression, and subsequently illustrated using simulated and real-world datasets. The increased flexibility of the proposed models does not come at a high computational cost, and the motivation and interpretation are equally transparent to simpler MoE models.

In many countries, the decline in interest rates has reduced the interest in traditional participating life insurance contracts with investment guarantees and has led to a shift to unit-linked policies without guarantees. We design a novel mixed insurance contract splitting premium payments between a participating and a unit-linked fund. An additional guarantee fee is applied on the unit-linked return in order to increase the investment guarantee of the participating fund. In a utility-based framework, using power utility and prospect theory as preference functions, we show that the mixed product is usually perceived more attractive than a full investment in either the unit-linked or the participating contract. The guarantee fee is beneficial for conservative investors interested in stronger protection against losses. This is also interesting from a marketing perspective: By the increase of the guarantee in the participating product, zero or negative guaranteed rates can be avoided.

The stability of income payments in a pooled annuity fund is studied. In those funds, members receive a fluctuating income depending on their experienced mortality in exchange for their pension savings. The focus is on describing the influence of different initial savings on the ability of the fund to provide a stable income in retirement. Because of this, members coincide in their characteristics except for their initial savings. We identify a term, which we dub ``implied number of homogeneous members'', that directly links the initial savings to the size of the income fluctuations. Our main contribution is the analysis of this term and the development of a criterion to answer the question of whether or not a given group of same-aged people should pool their funds together.

In this paper, we demonstrate through the use of matrix calculus a transparent analysis of fractional inhomogeneous Markov models for life insurance where transition matrices commute. The resulting formulae are intuitive matrix generalizations of their single-state counterparts, and the absorption times are matrix versions of well-known scalar distributions. A further advantage of this approach is that it allows extending the analysis to the non-Markovian case where sojourns are Mittag-Leffler distributed, and where the absorption times are fractional phase-type distributed. Considering deterministic time transforms gives rise to fractional inhomogeneous phase-type distributions as absorption times. The latter underlying processes are an example of a regime where not only the present but also the history of a policyholder influences its future evolution. The sub-exponential nature of stable distributions translates into the multi-state insurance model as a random longevity risk at any given state of the chain.

Traditional claim estimation in general insurance works with accident year cohorts and development patterns. For the impending International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 17 Insurance Contracts and often for reinsurance purposes, claim estimates must be split by contract year. This paper proposes to add contract year as a cohort classifier and to adjust the development patterns accordingly. To this end, we use the continuous time models of Hesselager and Norberg. Having contract year as an additional cohort classifier, display of claim estimates by contract year and/or accident year becomes a simple matter of summation across the appropriate dimensions. The continuous time model also enables us to derive mutually consistent development patterns for discrete time intervals of different length, such as years and quarters. In addition to delivering consistent development patterns in discrete time, continuous time modelling offers the advantage of requiring only a fixed number of model parameters. Although most of the derivations in this paper are explained in terms of claim numbers, the mechanics can also be applied to claim payments.

Past mortality experience has shown that the variability in mortality levels is not constant and can be higher than what the usual Poisson assumption implies. This paper proposes two ways to tackle the heterogeneity often present in mortality data. First, an additional dispersion submodel is developed and combined with the mean model to perform a joint modelling of the mean and the dispersion. Moreover, a flexible group of distributions called the Tweedie family is adopted to model the number of deaths. Using Australian and other mortality data, the results of this study show that this Tweedie double modelling framework can generally improve the fitting performance and also leads to a more adequate allowance for longevity risk when valuing pension annuities.

As world populations age along with speedy internationalization, forecasting mortality for multiple countries or populations with similar socio-economic conditions or close cultural connections has become essential. We apply the hierarchical Bayesian theory to the random walk with drift model governing the dynamics of the logarithm of central death rates for each age and population. Using the mortality data for both genders of three developed countries for an age span 25–84 and a series of fitting age-year windows, and further extending the data set to include both genders of twenty countries, we conclude that the proposed hierarchical Bayesian framework can more accurately capture the mortality trends and overall outperforms the Lee–Carter model and its three extensions in mortality forecasting. Grouping both genders of the twenty countries in three ways, we find that the expected improvement rates per year in the logarithm of central death rate for all twenty countries converge to about 2% except for the US.

We consider the dividend maximization problem including a ruin penalty in a diffusion environment. The additional penalty term is motivated by a constraint on dividend strategies. Intentionally, we use different discount rates for the dividends and the penalty, which causes time-inconsistency. This allows to study different types of constraints. For the diffusion approximation of the classical surplus process we derive an explicit equilibrium dividend strategy and the associated value function. Inspired by duality arguments, we can identify a particular equilibrium strategy such that for a given initial surplus the imposed constraint is fulfilled. Furthermore, we illustrate our findings with a numerical example.

In this paper, we determine a robust reinsurance contract from joint interests of the insurer and reinsurer under the framework of Stackelberg differential game. More specifically, the reinsurer is the leader of the game and decides on an optimal reinsurance premium to charge, while the insurer is the follower of the game and chooses an optimal proportional reinsurance to purchase. In order to defend the large shocks of wealth process, a loss-dependent premium principle is applied to the insurer. Meanwhile, we incorporate model uncertainty into the reinsurer's controlled surplus due to the asymmetric information. Under the time-consistent mean-variance criterion, we derive the robust reinsurance contract explicitly by solving the coupled extended Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman systems. It is interesting to prove that the optimal premium control for the reinsurer is determined by a time-adjusted variance principle. In addition, we find that the reinsurer would like to raise the reinsurance price to guard against the model uncertainty, which consequently decreases the insurer's reinsurance demand. Finally, further analyses are provided to show the necessity of considering the model uncertainty; otherwise, the reinsurance company will suffer a great loss of utility.

ABSTRACT This paper introduces new valuation schemes called actuarial-consistent valuations for insurance liabilities which depend on both financial and actuarial risks, which imposes that all actuarial risks are priced via standard actuarial principles. We propose to extend standard actuarial principles by a new actuarial-consistent procedure, which we call ‘two-step actuarial valuations’. In the case valuations are coherent, we show that actuarial-consistent valuations are equivalent to two-step actuarial valuations. We also discuss the connection with ‘two-step market-consistent valuations’ from Pelsser, A. & Stadje, M. [(2014). Time-consistent and market-consistent evaluations. Mathematical Finance 24(1), 25–65]. In particular, we discuss how the dependence structure between actuarial and financial risks impacts both actuarial-consistent and market-consistent valuations.
