Dear Giampaolo
Traditionally, valuation models in life insurance assume an
independence between the financial risks and the mortality or
longevity risks. This orthogonality between insurance and finance
allows for to apply in the valuation procedure a clear separation
between on the one hand the discount effect and on the other hand
the survival probabilities.
We can say that this independence is really at the heart of the
models, from classical actuarial pricing to more modern stochastic
models. This independence principle could seem reasonable at first
sight.
However, different circumstances could lead to correlation between
mortality / demographic evolutions and the financial markets. The
recent effects of COVID illustrate perfectly this point. Ageing is
another potential example of demographic phenomenon with expected
consequences on financial investments.
What happens if we introduce in the stochastic models of valuation
used in life insurance a correlation between interest rates or
risky returns and mortality intensities? This will be the topic of
this session.
