Time-consistent meanvariance hedging of longevity risk : Effect of cointegration / Tat Wing Wong, Mei Choi Chiu, Hoi Ying Wong
Sumario: This paper investigates the time-consistent dynamic meanvariance hedging of longevity risk with a longevity security contingent on a mortality index or the national mortality. Using an HJB framework, we solve the hedging problem in which insurance liabilities follow a doubly stochastic Poisson process with an intensity rate that is correlated and cointegrated to the index mortality rate. The derived closed-form optimal hedging policy articulates the important role of cointegration in longevity hedging. We show numerically that a time-consistent hedging policy is a smoother function in time when compared with its time-inconsistent counterpart.
