1 Market-Consistent Valuation of Long-Term Insurance Contracts Madrid June 2011 Jan-Philipp Schmidt Valuation Framework and Application to German Private Health Insurance

2 Slide 2 Market-Consistent Valuation of Long-Term Insurance Contracts AFIR 2011 in Madrid June 2011 Motivation What is the shareholders value from long-term insurance contracts? How do the special characteristics of German health insurance affect the shareholders value and risk associated with the value? How big is the financial risk of companies private health insurance portfolios?

14 Slide 11 Market-Consistent Valuation of Long-Term Insurance Contracts AFIR 2011 in Madrid June 2011 Private health insurance policies in Germany Life-long guarantee of coverage for predefined medical reimbursement. Insurer renounces the right to cancel the contract. Annual premium calculated by principle of equivalence (similar to life-techniques) assuming future claim development based on current situation. No benefits in case of death or surrender. Policyholder pays additional premium until age 60 (10 percent of actuarial premium). Additional reserve serves to limit excessive premium increase.

15 Slide 12 Market-Consistent Valuation of Long-Term Insurance Contracts AFIR 2011 in Madrid June 2011 Special contract characteristics Increase of average claim size (linked to inflation) leads to check of basis for actuarial calculation. If increase of average claim size is significant then insurance company adjusts expected claim size and interest rate. Premium payment includes surcharge (surcharge factor).

Options and Guarantees Short-term interest rate guarantee. Medical reimbursement. Surrender.

17 Slide 13 Market-Consistent Valuation of Long-Term Insurance Contracts AFIR 2011 in Madrid June 2011 Surplus distribution Surplus resulting from asset development, risk and cost surplus is aggregated at the end of the year. Positive surplus: Shareholders receive at most 20 % (surplus factor). Negative surplus: Up to 100 % financed by shareholders. Asymmetric impact on shareholders value.

30 Slide 22 Market-Consistent Valuation of Long-Term Insurance Contracts AFIR 2011 in Madrid June 2011 Conclusion Surcharge factor has a big impact on present value of future profits. We observe an exposure to financial risk in terms of the time value. High variance in present value of future profits.
