Title: The Cross-section of Asia-Pacific mortality dynamics : implications for longevity risk sharing / Enrico Bijfis, Yijia Lin, Andreas MilidonisAuthor: Biffis, Enrico
Notes: Sumario: We study the dynamics of longevity risk across a subset of countries in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. We use hand-collected and existing data on age-specific mortality rates from emerging and developed economies to understand how secular changes in mortality vary within and across APAC countries.We use our results to identify cross-dging opportunities among longevity risk exposures in the APAC region. We also introduce k-forward contracts, which offer natural risk-sharing opportunities to hedgers in different countries. We consider the example of Korea and Japan as a case study.
