We develop a theory for valuing non-diversifiable mortality risk in an incomplete market by assuming that the company issuing a mortality contingent claim requires compensation for this risk in the form of a pre-specified instantaneous Sharpe ratio. We apply our method to value life annuities....

We provide an overview of how the law of large numbers breaks down when pricing life-contingent claims under stochastic as opposed to deterministic mortality (probability, hazard) rates. In a stylized situation, we derive the limiting per-policy risk and show that it goes to a non-zero constant....

We study indifference pricing of mortality contingent claims in a fully stochastic model. We assume both stochastic interest rates and stochastic hazard rates governing the population mortality. In this setting we compute the indifference price charged by an insurer that uses exponential utility...
