Mortality population data available for the Asia-Pacific Region are currently limited. This report summarizes a data collection exercise targeting mortality data from the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. The assembled datasets are made freely available for future research. These are: (a) Asia-Pacific...

In this paper, we propose a simple dynamic mortality model to ft and forecast mortality rates for measuring longevity and mortality risks. This proposal is based on a methodology for modelling interest rates, which assumes that changes in spot interest rates depend linearly on a small number of...
