Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Health State transitions and longevity effects on retirees' optimal annuitization

Notas: Sumario: The interplay between longevity risk and health state transitions for retirees¿ optimal annuitization decisions is investigated. Using a life-cycle framework incorporating wealth levels, bequest motives, and consumption floors created by government subsidies, we examine how increased longevity in conjunction with an individual¿s health state transition process impacts annuity purchase decisions. Health state transition matrices are estimated from the Health and Retirement Survey (HRS) data. The effects of increased longevity on annuitization decisions are considered when longevity is both accompanied by increased time spent in healthier states (morbidity compression) or experienced by more time in unhealthy states (morbidity expansion).
