9 Risk Adjusted Loss based on Cost of Capital Demanded by IFRS and by Solvency II Method for calculating the market value of insurance liabilities Idea: the party taking over the portfolio wants to be compensated for the missed remuneration of the resilient capital, and for the expected payments it needs to make
10 Risk Adjusted Loss in IFM
11 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Let B(t 1, t 2 ) denote the future loss payments in [t 1, t 2 ] and suppose we have
12 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Let B(t 1, t 2 ) denote the future loss payments in [t 1, t 2 ] and suppose we have a function b(t) such that EB(t 1, t 2 ) = t2 t 1 b(s) ds
13 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Let B(t 1, t 2 ) denote the future loss payments in [t 1, t 2 ] and suppose we have a function b(t) such that EB(t 1, t 2 ) = t2 t 1 b(s) ds a function V (t) such that P(B(t, ) V (t)) = Note At time t the insurer must have a minimal resilient capital of V (t). This part of his capital cannot be used to yield more than the risk-free rate.
14 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Now suppose the liability is tranferred to a third party. Denote R f risk free rate R t total rate = R coc + R f
15 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Now suppose the liability is tranferred to a third party. Denote R f risk free rate R t total rate = R coc + R f We will regard the third party s minimum price E(t) as a fund which is (partly) available for investment, and from which the future losses are paid. This fund changes in a short time period t in the following way:
16 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Now suppose the liability is tranferred to a third party. Denote R f risk free rate R t total rate = R coc + R f We will regard the third party s minimum price E(t) as a fund which is (partly) available for investment, and from which the future losses are paid. This fund changes in a short time period t in the following way: The Resilient Capital V (t) generates a risk-free interest R f t.
17 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Now suppose the liability is tranferred to a third party. Denote R f risk free rate R t total rate = R coc + R f We will regard the third party s minimum price E(t) as a fund which is (partly) available for investment, and from which the future losses are paid. This fund changes in a short time period t in the following way: The Resilient Capital V (t) generates a risk-free interest R f t. The rest E(t) V (t) generates the total interest R t t.
18 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Now suppose the liability is tranferred to a third party. Denote R f risk free rate R t total rate = R coc + R f We will regard the third party s minimum price E(t) as a fund which is (partly) available for investment, and from which the future losses are paid. This fund changes in a short time period t in the following way: The Resilient Capital V (t) generates a risk-free interest R f t. The rest E(t) V (t) generates the total interest R t t. The loss payment b(t) t.
19 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss This leads to the following differential equation for E(t): de dt = (E(t) V (t))r t (t) + V (t)r f (t) b(t).
20 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss This leads to the following differential equation for E(t): de dt = (E(t) V (t))r t (t) + V (t)r f (t) b(t). In the end all liabilities have been winded down; no further loss payments are foreseen and no further resilient capital is needed. To determine a fair price we therefore take the boundary condition E( ) = 0.
21 Calculation of Risk Adjusted Loss Solving this equation, we find E(t) = t (V (s)r CoC + b(s)) exp ( s ) R t (u) du ds t and in particular, we find the Risk Adjusted Loss E(0).
22 Interpretation E(t) = DFL(t) + DMR(t) The fund E(t) consists of imbursements for:
23 Interpretation E(t) = DFL(t) + DMR(t) The fund E(t) consists of imbursements for: DFL(t): future loss payments discounted at R t (total rate) ( s ) DFL(t) = b(s) exp R t (u) du ds. t t
24 Interpretation E(t) = DFL(t) + DMR(t) The fund E(t) consists of imbursements for: DFL(t): future loss payments discounted at R t (total rate) ( s ) DFL(t) = b(s) exp R t (u) du ds. t t DMR(t): missed remuneration on Resilient Capital also discounted at R t (total rate) ( s ) DMR(t) = V (s)r coc exp R t (u) du ds. t t
25 A brief recapitulation of the IFM loss-reserving model to answer the question of how to find b() and V ()
26 Picture of the model
27 Initial definitions We will use the following notation to define our model for the paid and the incurred run-off tables.
28 Initial definitions We will use the following notation to define our model for the paid and the incurred run-off tables. l indicates the loss period. k indicates the development period.
29 Initial definitions We will use the following notation to define our model for the paid and the incurred run-off tables. l indicates the loss period. k indicates the development period. Y (1) lk Y (2) lk indicates the incremental incurred. indicates the incremental paid.
30 Initial definitions We will use the following notation to define our model for the paid and the incurred run-off tables. l indicates the loss period. k indicates the development period. Y (1) lk Y (2) lk indicates the incremental incurred. indicates the incremental paid. Our goal is to model the vector (Y (1), Y (2) ), including all future values.
31 Auxiliary variables We start with auxiliary independent Gaussian random variables: ( ) Z (1) lk N µ (1) lk, V (1) lk ( Z (2) lk N µ (2) lk, V (2) lk )
32 Auxiliary variables We start with auxiliary independent Gaussian random variables: ( ) Z (1) lk N µ (1) lk, V (1) lk ( Z (2) lk N µ (2) lk, V (2) lk ) Now, define the event { R = k Z (1) lk = k Z (2) lk ( l) This says that for each loss period, the total amount incurred equals the total amount paid. }.
33 Final step Finally we define the incremental losses by Y (1) Z (1) R Y (2) Z (2) R This means that (Y (1), Y (2) ) is normally distributed, and that the row sums of the two tables are always equal.
34 Final step Finally we define the incremental losses by Y (1) Z (1) R Y (2) Z (2) R This means that (Y (1), Y (2) ) is normally distributed, and that the row sums of the two tables are always equal. Means and covariances of (Y (1), Y (2) ) are functions of µ (i) lk V (i) lk. and

It is flexible in aggregating various data sets and in handling aggregation levels of the input data. 2. It handles loss triangles with missing cells with ease. 3. It incorporates in a proper way negative data coming from negative adjustments to losses. 4. Future premium risk is added by extending the exposure measure, which in an integrated way produces future loss in force (Solvency II requires the loss risk on one-year future premium).
