Longevity risk pooling is key, but so is flexibility to satisfy members' individual needs and preferences. We propose a tontine construct as a flexible and cost-effective investment option for the Chilean pension system. Payouts are for life, but variable since there are no explicit guarantees. Our proposal provides transparency, investment flexibility, and higher expected income streams than any of the existing options available to the country’s pensioners. Importantly, it does not distort the existing investment and annuity markets; on the contrary, it complements them. Additionally, it provides a means to offer a form of longevity insurance even if insurers are unwilling to supply it. Furthermore, it is in line with the movement of many countries toward promoting longevity-risk sharing within their defined-contribution systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

In addition, the proposed framework addresses the challenge of a shrinking pattern in long-term forecasting with information from neighboring ages and cohorts. An extensive empirical analysis is conducted using various countries and regions in the Human Mortality Database. Results show that this framework reduces the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of the 20-year forecasting by almost 50% compared to classic stochastic mortality models, and it also outperforms deep learning-based benchmarks. Moreover, including mortality data from multiple populations can further enhance the long-term prediction performance of this framework.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

While it has been shown that the use of CBD mortality indexes can effectively reduce longevity risk exposures in idealized settings, the risk mitigation potential of such indexes in a more realistic environment, whereby, for example, population basis risk exists, is yet to be investigated. This research gap is addressed in this paper through the development of a generalized CBD model with stochastic socioeconomic differentials in mortality improvements. The proposed model incorporates possible co-integration effects between mortality dynamics of socioeconomic subgroups and the general population, and features a form of coherence that is less restrictive than the typically assumed full coherence. This paper is concluded with various numerical experiments that are conducted to demonstrate the possible bias in hedge effectiveness that may be resulted if the key features of the proposed model are altered.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

Regarding sustainability attributes, we focus on the product classification according to the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation as a European regulatory transparency standard, and on sustainable investment strategies. We conduct two choice-based conjoint analyses using a German panel for unit-linked life insurances as well as fund savings plans as a financial product comparison. We estimate the relative importance, part-worth utilities, and the marginal willingness to pay for changes in product attributes. Our results suggest that private investors of unit-linked life insurances value sustainable product attributes and that they result in a slightly higher marginal willingness to pay, but risk–return indicators and especially ongoing costs are currently more relevant. We find further indications that sustainability attributes are less relevant in the setting of a unit-linked life insurance as compared to a fund savings plans setting.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

We then extend the mortality improvement NN model to consider autoregressive effects, which allows mortality improvement to depend on the lagged mortality rates. The advantage of our NN model setup is that the parameters of period and cohort effects are implicitly estimated by the NN models, and hence, the mortality projection can be obtained without taking the extra steps of selecting and estimating the suitable time-series model for period and cohort effects. Our empirical results suggests that, based on 48 populations in the Human Mortality Database with complete sets of observations from 1950 with the age span of 55–90, the NN models with cohort and autoregressive effects improve the forecast accuracy of mortality rate projections and provide better prediction performance.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

We present valuation, stress test and scenario analysis results that suggest that equity release mortgages are unsuitable for pension funds because: (i) they bear returns that are typically below the risk-free rate; (ii) they are not hedges for annuity books, let alone good hedges; and (iii) they are heavily exposed to house price risk, which annuity books are not. Our results suggest that equity release mortgages meet none of these criteria to be suitable for pension funds and are almost entirely dominated by risk-free government bonds.

Using a Bank of Italy 2021 survey of 1998 non-financial firms with fewer than 10 employees, we show a significant positive association between the level of the entrepreneur’s financial literacy and the purchase of BI insurance.

Infrastructure development in sub-Saharan African countries: does insurance matter? 撒哈拉以南非洲国家的基础设施发展：保险重要吗？

The researchers used a sample of 31 Sub-Saharan African countries from a panel of data observed over the period 2003–2020. The methodologies used in this paper are the Driscoll-Kraay and Panels Corrected Standard Error. The results show that insurance (life and non-life) positively explains the level of infrastructure in Sub-Saharan Africa. Furthermore, using disaggregated infrastructure indices, the effect remains the same for transport, electricity, and water and sanitation infrastructure. However, insurance has no significant effect on telecommunications infrastructure. Our results remain robust using an instrumental variable technique, two stage least square. The economic policy suggestions concern the improvement of the regulatory framework for the insurance business so that it can participate effectively in financing the economy. In addition, a strengthening of the public–private partnership is commendable in order to provide governments with an alternative source of infrastructure financing, different from the generally used public financing, whose capacity is likely to be insufficient.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.
