Pricing life insurance contracts with early exercise features
In this paper we describe an algorithm based on the Least Squares Monte Carlo method to price life insurance contracts embedding American options. We focus on equity-linked contracts with surrender options and terminal guarantees on benefits payable upon death, survival and surrender. The framework allows for randomness in mortality as well as stochastic volatility and jumps in financial risk f...
متن کاملPricing early exercise contracts in incomplete markets
We present a utility-based methodology for the valuation of early exercise contracts in incomplete markets. Incompleteness stems from nontraded assets on which the contracts are written. This methodology takes into account the individual’s attitude towards risk and yields nonlinear pricing rules. The early exercise indifference prices solve a quasilinear variational inequality with an obstacle ...
متن کاملThe Uncertain Mortality Intensity Framework: Pricing and Hedging Unit-Linked Life Insurance Contracts
We study the valuation and hedging of unit-linked life insurance contracts in a setting where mortality intensity is governed by a stochastic process. We focus on model risk arising from different specifications for the mortality intensity. To do so we assume that the mortality intensity is almost surely bounded under the statistical measure. Further, we restrict the equivalent martingale measu...
متن کاملPricing of Cyber Insurance Contracts in a Network Model
We develop a novel approach for pricing cyber insurance contracts. The considered cyber threats, such as viruses and worms, diffuse in a structured data network. The spread of the cyber infection is modeled by an interacting Markov chain. Conditional on the underlying infection, the occurrence and size of claims are described by a marked point process. We introduce and analyze a new polynomial ...
متن کاملA formal model for pricing information systems insurance contracts
Information systems security has become a top priority issue for most organisations worldwide, mainly because of the rapidly increasing number of threats and the highly sophisticated methods utilised for realising the attacks. The typical reaction of IT officials is to protect their systems through a series of technical securitymeasures. However, in the absence of a scientifically sound methodo...
