MAP20140003525Mortality portfolio risk management / Samuel H. Cox...[et.al]Sumario: We provide a new method, the MV+CVaR approach, for managing unexpected mortality changes underlying annuities and life insurance. The MV+CVaR approach optimizes the meanvariance trade-off of an insurer's mortality portfolio, subject to constraints on downside risk. We apply the method of moments and the maximum entropy method to analyze the efficiency of MV+CVaR mortality portfolios relative to traditional Markowitz meanvariance portfolios. Our numerical examples illustrate the superiority of the MV+CVaR approach in mortality risk management and shed new light on natural hedging effects of annuities and life insuranceEn: The Journal of risk and insurance. - Nueva York : The American Risk and Insurance Association, 1964- = ISSN 0022-4367. - 02/12/2013 Volumen 80 Número 4 - diciembre 2013
