Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit in Variable Annuities
We develop a singular stochastic control model for pricing variable annuities with the guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit. This benefit promises to return the entire initial investment, with withdrawals spread over the term of the contract, irrespective of the market performance of the underlying asset portfolio. A contractual withdrawal rate is set and no penalty is imposed when the policyh...
متن کاملRegression-based Monte Carlo methods for stochastic control models: Variable annuities with lifelong guarantees
We present the regression-based Monte Carlo simulation algorithms for solving the stochastic control models associated with pricing and hedging of the Guaranteed Lifelong Withdrawal Benefit (GLWB) in variable annuities, where the dynamics of the underlying fund value is assumed to evolve according to the stochastic volatility model. The GLWB offers a lifelong withdrawal benefit even when the po...
متن کاملPractical Considerations in Managing Variable Annuities
Variable annuities have grown tremendously in recent years, offering life insurers significant growth opportunities. These equity and interest rate structured products offer a broad range of guarantees to the policyholders, and insurers must manage their risks. The insurer’s risk management program must consider modeling and implementation challenges beyond that of the standard capital market a...
متن کاملThe Cost of Guaranteed Income - RMJ Spring2014
© 2014 Retirement Income Industry Association® 55 Abstract Variable annuities (VAs) are among themost complex and controversial products in the investment universe. Although a fair amount of research regarding the merits of VAs with guaranteed lifetime withdrawal benefit (GLWB) riders has been published over the past decade, to date, few of these papers have been of practical usefulness in guid...
متن کاملA numerical scheme for the impulse control formulation for pricing variable annuities with a guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (GMWB)
In this paper, we outline an impulse stochastic control formulation for pricing variable annuities with a Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (GMWB) assuming the policyholder is allowed to withdraw funds continuously. We develop a single numerical scheme for solving the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) variational inequality corresponding to the impulse control problem, and for pricing realistic...
