Notas: Sumario: We investigate whether a historical pension concept, the tontine, yields enough innovative potential to extend and improve the prevailing privately funded pension solutions in a modern way. The tontine basically generates an age-increasing cash flow, which can help to match the increasing financing needs at old ages. In contrast to traditional pension products, however, the tontine generates volatile cash flows, which means that the insurance character of the tontine cannot be guaranteed in every situation. By employing Multi Cumulative Prospect Theory (MCPT) we answer the question to what extent tontines can be a complement to or a substitute for traditional annuities. We find that it is only optimal to invest in tontines for a certain range of initial wealth. In addition, we investigate in how far the tontine size, the volatility of individual liquidity needs and expected mortality rates contribute to the demand for tontines.
