Dissertação apresentada na Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa para obtenção do Grau de mestre em Matemática e AplicaçõesThe health insurance has become complementary to the National Health Care system in Portugal. In the last years, the increase of this insurance has been considerable. Despite the health concerns of Portuguese citizens, related to better life quality, medical technology and others, the ageing of Portuguese population is a reality to be well thought-out. Regarding this fact, the whole life health insurance is an important product to be developed. In this dissertation, it is presented an approach to the calculation of the level premiums for the whole life health insurance in order to fulfil the Portuguese insurer’s market requests. A private health insurance company with a historical data of ten years provided the statistics used for this calculation. The levelled insurance premiums were calculated on the basis of the risk involved and according to the principle of equivalence. This means that regarding the period insured, the total of premiums should match the total of the benefits.

In this work we describe the basic facts of non-life insurance and then explain risk processes. In particular, we will explain in detail the asymptotic behavior of the probability that an insurance product may end up in ruin during its lifetime. As expected, the behavior of such asymptotic probability will be highly dependent on the tail distribution of each claim.En este artículo describimos los conceptos básicos relacionados a seguros que no sean de vida y luego explicamos procesos de riesgo. En particular, tratamos al detalle el comportamiento asintótico de la probabilidad de que un producto sea declarado en ruina.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses household saving behaviour, characterising the extent of self-insurance and public insurance over the life-cycle. Understanding how household saving varies in response to different forms of uncertainty is vitally important. Some risks are not fully insurable when markets are incomplete: for example, it is difficult for private insurers to cover layoff and productivity risk because of moral hazard issues. In these situations saving decisions determine households’ ability to avoid adversity, or to self-insure against such outcomes. While there has been substantial research into the broad questions concerning saving and expenditure choices, issues such as household asset allocation, the adequacy of self-insurance, and the interplay between these decisions and public insurance are less well understood. This thesis investigates these questions, combining theory and empirics in order to further our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of household saving choices. I begin with theory, presenting two structural papers that enrich the basic life-cycle model by increasing the realism of the modelling structure. In the first chapter I formulate a number of extensions to the standard framework, and detail how these permit simultaneous matching of key wealth and asset allocation statistics. In the second, I propose a novel identification strategy that enables us to elicit households’ beliefs about the risk and return of investing in stocks, and allows us to estimate intertemporal allocation parameters harmonising both consumption and financial wealth data. In the third chapter I undertake a reduced form approach to estimate the consumption loss associated with serious health shocks, using the life-cycle model as an organising framework. I develop a systemic analysis of household saving choices in order to better analyse questions about the effectiveness of self-insurance, the degree of preparedness for retirement, and how these respond to different levels of public insurance.

Full textAbstract:
It is of outmost importance for an insurance company to apply a fair pricing policy. If the price is too high, valuable customers are lost to other insurance companies while if it’s too low – it nets a negative profit. To achieve a good pricing policy, information regarding claim size history for a given type of customer is required. A problem arises as large extremal events occur and affects the claim size data. These extremal events take shape in individually large claim sizes that by themselves can alter the distribution for what certain groups of individuals are expected to cost. A remedy for this is to apply what is called a large claim limit. Any claim exceeding this limit is thought of as being outside the scope of what is captured by the original distribution of the claim size. These exceeding claims are treated separately and have their cost distributed across all insurance takers, rather than just the group they belong to. So, where exactly do you draw this limit? Do you treat the entire claim size this way (exclusion) or just the bit that is exceeding the threshold (truncation)? These questions are treated and answered in this master’s thesis for Trygg-Hansa. For each product code, a limit was achieved in addition to which method for exceeding data that was best to use.Det är oerhört viktigt för ett försäkringsbolag att kunna tillämpa en god prissättning. Är priset för högt så förloras kunder till andra försäkringsbolag, och är den underprisad är det en förlustaffär. För att kunna sätta bra priser krävs information om vilka samt hur stora skador som kan tänkas inträffa för en given kundprofil. Ett problem uppstår när stora extremfall påverkar skadedatan. Dessa extremfall yttrar sig genom enskilda storskador som kan komma att påverka prissättningen för en hel grupp då distributionen för vad gruppen förväntas kosta kan ändras. Detta problem kan lösas genom att införa en storskadegräns till skadedatan. Skador över denna gräns räknas som extremfall och utanför ramen av vad den ursprungliga distributionen för skadorna beskriver. De hanteras separat och låter sin kostnad fördelas över samtliga försäkringstagare. Men vart dras denna gräns? Ska man behandla hela den överstigande kostnaden på detta sätt (exkludering) eller bara den biten av skadan som går över storskadegränsen (trunkering)? Dessa frågor behandlas och besvaras i denna masteruppsats i uppdrag åt Trygg-Hansa. För de olika produkttypkoderna beräknades varsin storskadegräns samt metod för överskridande data.

Hayes, Genevieve Katherine, and genevieve hayes@anu edu au. "Stochastic Solvency Testing in Life Insurance." The Australian National University. School of Finance and Applied Statistics, 2009. http://thesis.anu.edu.au./public/adt-ANU20090226.084732.
Full textAbstract:
Stochastic solvency testing methods have existed for more than 20 years, yet there has been little research conducted in this area, particularly in Australia. This is for a number of reasons, the most pertinent of which being the lack of computing capabilities available in the past to implement more sophisticated techniques. However, recent advances in computing have made stochastic solvency testing possible in practice and have resulted in a trend towards this being done in advanced studies.
¶
The purpose of this thesis is to develop a realistic solvency testing model in a form that can be implemented by Australian Life Insurers, in anticipation that the Australian insurance regulator, APRA, will ultimately follow the world trend and require stochastic solvency testing to be carried out in Australia. The model is constructed from three interconnected stochastic sub-models used to describe the economic environment and the mortality and lapsation experience of the portfolio of policies under consideration. Australian economic and Life Insurance data is used to fit a number of possible sub-models, such as generalised linear models, over-dispersion models and asset models, and the ``best'' model is selected in each case. The selected models are a modified CAS/SOA economic sub-model; either a Poisson or negative binomial (NB1) distribution (depending on the policy type considered) as the mortality sub-model; and a normal-Poisson lapsation sub-model.
¶
Based on tests carried out using this model, it is demonstrated that, for portfolios of level and yearly-renewable term insurance business, the current deterministic solvency capital requirements provide little protection against insolvency. In fact, for the test portfolios of term insurance policies considered, the deterministic capital requirements have levels of sufficiency of less than 2% (on a Value at Risk basis) when compared to the change in capital distribution over a three year time horizon. This is of concern, as yearly-renewable term insurance comprises a significant volume of Life Insurance business in Australia, with there being over 426,000 yearly-renewable term insurance policies on the books of Australian Life Insurers in 1999 and more business expected since then.
¶
A sensitivity analysis shows that the results of the stochastic asset requirement calculations are sensitive to the choice of sub-model used to forecast economic variables and to the choice of formulae used to describe the mean mortality and lapsation rates. The implication of this is that, if APRA were to require Life Insurers to calculate their solvency capital requirements on a stochastic basis, some guidance would need to be provided regarding the components of the solvency testing model used. The model is not, however, sensitive to whether an allowance is made for mortality or lapsation rate over-dispersion, nor to whether dependency relationships between mortality rates, lapsation rates and the economy are allowed for. Thus, over-dispersion and dependency relationships between the sub-models can be ignored in a stochastic solvency testing model without significantly impacting the calculated solvency requirements.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis consists of five papers, presented in Chapters A-E, on topics in life and disability insurance. It is naturally divided into two parts, where papers A and B discuss disability rates estimation based on historical claims data, and papers C-E discuss claims reserving, risk management and insurer solvency.In Paper A, disability inception and recovery probabilities are modelled in a generalized linear models (GLM) framework. For prediction of future disability rates, it is customary to combine GLMs with time series forecasting techniques into a two-step method involving parameter estimation from historical data and subsequent calibration of a time series model. This approach may in fact lead to both conceptual and numerical problems since any time trend components of the model are incoherently treated as both model parameters and realizations of a stochastic process. In Paper B, we suggest that this general two-step approach can be improved in the following way: First, we assume a stochastic process form for the time trend component. The corresponding transition densities are then incorporated into the likelihood, and the model parameters are estimated using the Expectation-Maximization algorithm.In Papers C and D, we consider a large portfolio of life or disability annuity policies. The policies are assumed to be independent conditional on an external stochastic process representing the economic-demographic environment. Using the Conditional Law of Large Numbers (CLLN), we establish the connection between claims reserving and risk aggregation for large portfolios. Moreover, we show how statistical multi-factor intensity models can be approximated by one-factor models, which allows for computing reserves and capital requirements efficiently. Paper C focuses on claims reserving and ultimate risk, whereas the focus of Paper D is on the one-year risks associated with the Solvency II directive.In Paper E, we consider claims reserving for life insurance policies with reserve-dependent payments driven by multi-state Markov chains. The associated prospective reserve is formulated as a recursive utility function using the framework of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDE). We show that the prospective reserve satisfies a nonlinear Thiele equation for Markovian BSDEs when the driver is a deterministic function of the reserve and the underlying Markov chain. Aggregation of prospective reserves for large and homogeneous insurance portfolios is considered through mean-field approximations. We show that the corresponding prospective reserve satisfies a BSDE of mean-field type and derive the associated nonlinear Thiele equation.QC 20151012

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to investigate about the quantitative models used for pricing and managing life insurance risks. It was done analyzing the existing literature about methods and models used in the insurance field in order to developing (1) new stochastic models for longevity and mortality risks and (2) new pricing functions for life insurance policies and options embedded in such contracts.
The motivations for this research are to be searched essentially in: (1) a new risk-based solvency framework for the insurance industry, the so-called Solvency II project, that will becomes effective in 2013/2014; (2) a new IAS/IFRS fair value-based accounting for insurance contracts, the so-called IFRS 4 (Phase 2) project (to be approval); (3) more rigorous quantitative analysis required by the industry in pricing and risk management of life insurance risks.
The first part of the thesis (first and second chapters) contains a review of the quantitative models used for interest rates and longevity/mortality modeling. The second part (remaining chapters) describes new methods and quantitative models that it thinks could be useful in the context of pricing and insurance risk management.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is a pioneer study that examines the growing importance of global insurance markets and the factors that determine continued success and viability. A couple of issues relating to risk and insurance that have not been examined to such an extent in previous studies are represented through the examination of two of the fastest growing areas within international insurance services, namely those of global bancassurance and life insurance markets. Firstly, this thesis establishes what determines the demand for bancassurance using a sample of 73 companies from 28 developed and developing countries from across the globe. Methodological improvements are made on previous studies through the use of the advanced estimation technique known as Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) which helps account for such inconsistencies as measurement errors, heteroscedasticity, multicollinearity and endogeneity. The results obtained both extend and reconcile existing literature in the field of bancassurance. Secondly, the determinants that influence the level of life insurance consumption throughout the OECD are scrutinized with a particular focus on the influence of systems of law. Thus far no other study has attempted to discover the relationship between life insurance consumption patterns and the legal systems in place within a given nation. The key finding highlights the importance of systems of law on consumption patterns, and specifies that there is a significant positive relationship between the French and German civil-law systems and the level of life insurance consumption within the OECD. In addition, the findings in regards to other demographic, macroeconomic and social determinants extend as well as support the existing literature in the field of life insurance.

In recent years, as adversely impacted by the spread loss and reserve increase following the financial crisis and the implementation of IFRS, many foreign-based life insurance companies in Taiwan have sold their Taiwan branches to the other local life insurance companies. As a result, about 60,000 salesmen of these Taiwan branches of the foreign-based companies were merged into the local companies, and some of them may not be able to adopt to the system of the local companies and turn to the life insurance brokers or agents as their best choice. This thesis discuss how the Non-life insurance industries cooperate with the life insurance brokers by maneuvering the four main dimensions, ie. environmental factors, business strategy, organizational structure, and performance goals, the last dimension of which is generated by the coordination of the former three ones. Further, by the way of the questionnaire survey methods of the expert Delph and given from the results of the said methods conducted for two times , the recommendations and conclusions of the four dimensions are summarized as below : 1.Environmental factors : Due to the low price competition prevailing in the non-life insurance industries, the market has been grown slowly. In such circumstance, the non-life insurance companies can provide the life insurance brokers with a convenient e-commerce platform so as to reduce the cost of labour operation and to maintain long-term dependence, which aims to win the reliance of the life insurance brokers and create the value of mutual cooperation. 2.Business strategy : Though the main factors considered by the life insurance brokers to choose the non-life insurance companies as their partners are the brand image, financial soundness, product uniqueness and differentiation etc. However, the brokers usually put more focus on the level of brokerage; as a result, the loyalty of the brokers is not stable and they even do not care about who the partner is. In this situation, in addition to the brokerage, the business strategies of the non-life insurance companies are recommended to tie up their partners of the life insurance brokers under the common goal of profitability, on the basis of the effective integration of resource and the achievement of the mutual benefit to the both parties, and make the maximum performance as their strategy. 3.Organizational structure : The non-life insurance companies are also recommended to set up independent departments responsible for the development and maintenance of channel of life insurance brokers. For the external operation, the departments are to provide the brokers the channel of communication and complaint so as to solve problems from the brokers efficiently and to improve the service quality; for the internal side, the departments are to convey the right message from the brokers and through the division of labour authorization, to know well and keep regular progress of cooperation with the brokers, and to have conflicts resolution between the brokers, which from the point of cooperation strategy, will reach a long-term interactive partnership. 4.Performance goals : the non-life insurance companies shall conduct a periodical access on the performance of the partners of life insurance brokers to work out and meet the goals agreed by both parties. For the non-financial sides, the performance is evaluated via the contribution and productivity of the employees to the channel, and provide incentives to create the operation profit. Ultimately, to surpass the performance goal is the core value of strategy of promotion of Non-life insurance industries to cooperate with the life insurance brokers.

It is an important issue for customers to choose a good life insurance company. This research investigates the business and operating strategy of a life insurance company using a case company which obtained the model company four times. In addition, the study uses factor analysis to establish four indexes including policyholder responsibility, profitability, operating efficiency, and financial structure to evaluate the operating performance of the case company and other life insurance companies. The empirical results indicate that the case company does not perform better than other life insurance companies at policyholder responsibility and operating efficiency. The possible reason is that the case company focuses mainly on protection products not on saving-oriented products. Furthermore, the case company focuses on premium income not non-operating revenues. Although the case company does not perform better than other companies based on financial ratios, the complaint rate of the case company is lower than that of other life insurance. Therefore, except financial ratios, customers need to understand the product types, the ratio of non-operating revenues divided by net income, and complaint rate before choosing a good life insurance company.

The domestic life insurance industry at present is in the steep competition situation. With the fund accumulated rapidly, which investment strategy the life insurance company should take is very important. Law of Insurance 146th puts the restriction on the investment upper limit of the life insurance company. This research will discuss the influence of this investment restriction on life insurance companies’ asset allocation by the samples of Cathay Life Insurance and Shin Kong Life Insurance, and also evaluate the performances of these two life insurance companies. Moreover, under the investment restriction, this research compares the investment rates of return between the optimal portfolios by different portfolio performance measures and the actual portfolios of the two life insurance companies and also shows that which portfolio performance measure is more suitable for life insurance companies to contribute to the decision-making of the life insurance companies about asset allocation. This research utilizes the Efficient Frontier that is inferred from the Markowitz’s portfolio selection model to apply on the Sharpe measure and the IRp measure to achieve the research’s goal mentioned above. The conclusions of this research are as follows: 1. Evaluated by the Sharpe measure, whether there is the investment restriction or not, the difference is small；Evaluated by the IRp measure, then there is the higher expected rate of return and better diversification with no investment restriction. 2.The actual rates of return of Cathay Life Insurance and Shin Kong Life Insurance are below the expected rates of returns of their portfolio evaluated be the Sharpe measure and the IRp measure. Moreover, This two measures show that Cathay Life Insurance has the better investment performance then Shin Kong Life Insurance. 3. Under the investment restriction, the differences between the expected rates of return of the optimal portfolio whether by the Sharpe measure or the IRp measure and the investment rates of return of the actual portfolio of these two companies are caused by the influence of the macro economy. 4. If there is no investment restriction, the optimal portfolio of the IRp measure has the better diversification that fits the conservative character of the life insurance companies.

This study primarily explores bancassurance channel strategies of life insurance firms. This study uses case interviews to interview senior directors at life insurance firms as well as senior directors and financial management personnel responsible for sales at banks, in order to research life insurance firms and explore how they develop bancassurance channel strategies. In Taiwan, in collaboration between life insurance firms and banks, bank insurance business generally signs tri-lateral contracts. In recent years, in the life insurance marketing channels, bancassurance has taken up over 60% of the business of life insurance. This study primarily explores how life insurance firms that have not joined financial control groups can increase their own competitiveness to continue developing in the bancassurance business; the factor of bancassurance channel management strategy is an important issue. This study uses literature review and question design to establish a research framework, using aspects such as the motivation for strategic alliance collaboration, selection criteria for strategic alliance partners, and interaction and communication in the process of forming the strategic alliance, to explore factors that affect the management strategy of bancassurance channels. This study proposes the primary factors for banks selling insurance products, and it is hoped that this can be used to provide life insurance firms with a reference in the management of bancassurance business, so as to elevate the competitiveness in terms of bancassurance channels of life insurance firms that have not joined financial control groups.

This dissertation comprises two empirical essays on the development of life insurance industry and the performance of life insurance firm in Asia. The first essay utilizes a panel threshold model to investigate the relationship between economic development and life insurance market development in 10 Asian countries from 1979 to 2008. The empirical evidence shows there is a single optimal threshold level exists, and that indicates two regimes where the change of GDP effects on the development of life insurance market differ. The change of GDP does have a significant and positive impact on the development of life insurance market. However, when the change of GDP is higher than the threshold value, the impact of GDP increasing on life insurance development is clearly substantial than the change of GDP lower than the threshold value. Overall, the empirical evidences show that indicator of financial development, real interest rate and savings all have positive impacts on the development of life insurance market in this study. The second essay adopts a hierarchical linear growth model to estimate the sources of heterogeneity in firm-level performance and growth between life insurance industries located in 7 Asia countries from 1997 to 2006. Using HLM methodology allows this study to simultaneously investigate the impacts of variables at macro-level and micro-level and also potential correlations cross levels on performance of life insurance firms. The empirical evidences of this study show that when ROA is the indicator of performance, the growth of performance of life insurance industry in Asian courtiers is quadratic equation. That means the performance of life insurance firm is non-linear growth. This study found that as time goes on, ROA growth rate grows but accelerated rate of ROA growth decreases. In addition, D/A has a significant and positive impact and the change of asset has a negative impact on average ROA. Moreover, D/A has a significant and negative influence on ROA growth rate. This study found that the age dependency ratio and life insurance density significantly and negatively affect average ROA. As regards the analysis of interactions, the positive relationship between D/A and average ROA will be advance by the age dependency ratio; however it will be diminished by financial development. Moreover, the negative relationship of market share and average ROA will be intensified by financial development and life insurance density. Besides, the age dependency ratio may attenuate the negative effect of D/A on ROA growth rate. When the ROE is the indicator of performance, this study found that D/A is positively related to average ROE. However, the change of assets of life insurance firms is negatively related to average ROE. Also, market share has a significant and positive impact on ROE growth rate and the change of assets of firms has a significant and negative impact on ROE growth rate. Both the economic growth and life insurance density are positively associated with average ROE. However, the age dependency ratio related negatively to average ROE. The positive relationship between D/A and average ROE will be strengthened by the age dependency ratio, but will be attenuated by economic growth. Moreover, financial development may lessen the positive effect of growth of assets on performance. Also, the positive relationship between growth of life insurance premium and ROE will be advanced by larger the age dependency ratio and smaller life insurance density.

This paper establishes an understanding of the problems faced by insurance agents in the marketing of investment-linked insurance products and the relevant impacts. The conclusions of this paper are as follows: 1.Sales agents believe that the know-how in investment-linked insurance products is a prerequisite in the future. Also, investment-linked products are more complex than traditional policies and therefore, they are more difficult to understand. The market potential for unit-linked insurance products still has room for development. 2.When marketing investment-linked products, agents feel that it is more difficult to obtain licenses for such products compared to traditional products. The after-sale services for investment-linked products are also more demanding and complicated. Agents would analyze the market of investment-linked insurance products before they market them because they believe that this is an important issue. 3.Training classes offered by companies such as sales techniques, popular funds in Taiwan and overseas, introductions to different products are all very helpful to the marketing of unit-linked products for agents. 4.Although investment-linked products have created premium incomes for new contracts twice as much as traditional products in 2007, only 8.6% of the interviewers intend to focus 8.6% of their efforts on investment-linked products in the future. 81% of the agents decide to split their efforts on both investment-linked products and traditional products. This shows that traditional products should not be abandoned. Both companies and agents should meet the needs of policyholders for sustainable businesses. Key words: Investment-linked insurance, Insurance sales, Licences of investment –linked insurance products

Essay 1：Granger and Newbold (1974) showed that when nonstationary time series are used in a regression model this may cause spurious regression. Hao and Cuou (2001) proposed that the literatures of the demand for life insurance in Taiwan which use time series data have spurious regression problem. To solve the problem, one should detect the time series whether it contains a unit root or not. But Perron (1989) showed the failure to allow for a structural break leads to a bias. Hence, this study use the endogenous two-break LM unit root test derived in Lee and Strazicich (2003). Finally, the empirical results show that personal life insurance coverage of new contracts, personal life insurance premium income, the price of life insurance and per capita national income are with unit roots. Essay 2：The insurance market in Taiwan grows rapidly during the past decade because of the economic growth and less regulation governing the market. The financial market booms in recent years as well and the innovation of various financial products provides diverse channels of investment. The life insurance may become one of the components of portfolio. This study explores whether the financial development affects the consumption of life insurance. The development of financial market provides various choices of investment for consumers, and this may decrease consumers’ demand for life insurance. With the development of financial market, various kinds of life insurance products, nonetheless, appear for diverse needs, and this may increase consumers’ demand for life insurance. This study, hence, tests the relation between consumers’ demand for life insurance and the financial development. It uses the bounds testing approaches developed by Pesaran et al. (2001) to analyze the level relationship between the demand for personal life insurance and the financial development and other demographic and economic determinants in Taiwan. It can be applied irrespective of whether the regressors are I(0), I(1) or mutually integrated, and this avoids carrying out unit root tests which are complained about the low power. The time-series data are collected from various issues of Life Insurance Quarterly and span over the period from 1982 Q3 to 2003 Q4. The evidence can’t support the hypothesis that the development of financial market decreases consumers’ demand for life insurance.

Legally speaking, insurance brokers are intermediary agents for insurance buyers. Insurance brokers must thus make meticulous evaluations in the selection of property, casualty and personal life insurance companies for their clients. This study focuses on the selection criteria used by insurance brokers when selecting these kinds of insurance companies. Questionnaires were sent out to professional insurance brokers from both the sales and administrative sides of the insurance industry. These subjects were selected via purposive sampling. A total of 226 completed questionnaires were collected. Empirical results applied analytical methods such as t-test for independent sample, single factor variation and exploratory factor analysis. Analysis of the data suggests that dimensions like “product orientation”, “service orientation” and “company brand orientation” impacted how insurance brokers select insurance companies. Among these dimensions, factors like product design, commission rates, sales expectations, overall effectiveness (e.g. underwriting, insurance claims, customer service), auxiliary marketing, and company branding all have an effect on how insurance brokers select insurance companies for property, casualty, and personal life insurance.
