In this article, a model for pandemic risk and two stochastic extensions is proposed. It is designed for actuarial valuation of insurance plans providing healthcare and death benefits. The core of our approach relies on a deterministic model that is an efficient alternative to the...

This article proposes an interest rate model ruled by mean reverting Lévy processes with a sub-exponential memory of their sample path. This feature is achieved by considering an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process in which the exponential decaying kernel is replaced by a Mittag-Leffler function. Based...

In the context of pension plans, the employer and the worker have distinct interests and face different risks. The worker seeks higher retirement benefits, while the employer aims to minimize the cost of fulfilling his obligations. To address these diverse needs, the defined contribution plan...

This paper captures and measures the longevity risk generated by an annuity product. The longevity risk is materialized by the uncertain level of the future liability compared to the initially foretasted or expected value. Herein we compute the solvency capital (SC) of an insurer selling such a...

We propose a multi-cohort model that is able to capture the mortality correlation between different cohorts. The model is based on the Hull and White process to which we incorporate inter-generational risk factors, by modifying its stochastic part. We provide a pricing framework for a new...

An increasing number of empirical studies have shown a positive relationship between lifetime income and life expectancy at retirement. One's income during the active part of one's career translates into the amount of retirement benefits one might receive, leading to actuarial unfairness inside...

The K-means algorithm and its variants are well-known clustering techniques. In actuarial applications, these partitioning methods can identify clusters of policies with similar attributes. The resulting partitions provide an actuarial framework for creating maps of dominant risks and...
