Using stochastic mortality models, the study estimates excess deaths from 2020 to 2023 and evaluates heterogeneity across age groups and regions. It examines the relationship between excess mortality and socioeconomic factors such as government effectiveness, healthcare quality, and mobility. The paper also develops forward-looking mortality scenarios using Monte Carlo simulations to assess long-term implications for life expectancy. The findings provide relevant insights for insurers, policymakers, and actuarial risk managementRelated records: En: North American actuarial journal. - Schaumburg : Society of Actuaries, 1997- = ISSN 1092-0277. - 16/03/2026 Tomo 30 Número 1 - 2026 , 38 p.Materia / lugar / evento: MortalidadCOVID-19Modelos actuarialesEsperanza de vidaLongevidadPandemiasOtros autores: Kamiya, ShinichiZhou, LeiOther categories: 6Rights: In Copyright (InC)
