In this paper, we propose AR-GARCH (autoregression-generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity) models to fit and forecast mortality rates for a given age by two alternative approaches. Specifically, one approach is to fit a time series of mortality rates for some age to an...

For the valuation of reverse mortgages with tenure payments, this article proposes a specific analytic valuation framework with mortality risk, interest rate risk, and housing price risk that helps determine fair premiums when the present value of premiums equals the present value of contingent...

To deal with multi-country longevity risk, this article investigates the long-run equilibrium of mortality rates and introduces mortality correlations across countries as a means for pricing a multi-country longevity bond. The examination of the long-run equilibrium of the mortality rate relies...

To offer a means for insurance companies to deal with longevity risk, this article investigates a natural hedging strategy and attempts to find an optimal allocation of insurance products. Unlike prior research, this proposed natural hedging model can account for both the variance and mispricing...

This paper uses a multivariate normal inverse Gaussian model to develop closed-form pricing formulas for both geometric and arithmetic basket options. For geometric basket options, an exact analytical solution is possible; for arithmetic basket options, the formula is an approximation. The model...
