Section: ArticlesTitle: A Comparative study of risk measures for guaranteed minimum maturity benefits by a PDE method / Runhuan FengAuthor: Feng, RunhuanNotes: Sumario: The stochastic modeling and determination of reserves and risk capitals for variable annuity guarantee products are relatively new developments in the insurance industry. The current market practice is largely based on Monte Carlo simulations, which have great engineering flexibility, but the demand for heavy computational power can be prohibitive in many cases. In this article we distinguish and compare two types of risk models to determine the commonly used risk measures for reserving and capital calculations. Using an example of the guaranteed minimum maturity benefit, we investigate alternative numerical methods that require less computational resources and yet achieve high accuracy and efficiency.Related records: En: North American actuarial journal. - Schaumburg : Society of Actuaries, 1997- = ISSN 1092-0277. - 01/12/2014 Tomo 18 Número 4 - 2014 Other categories: 6Rights: In Copyright (InC)Referencias externas:
