3 Survival Models An insurance policy is a contract where the policyholder pays a premium to the insurer in return for a benefit or payment later. The contract specifies what event the payment is contingent on. This event may be random in nature Assume that interest rates are deterministic, for now Consider the case where an insurance company provides a benefit upon death of the policyholder. This time is unknown, and so the issuer requires, at least, a model of of human mortality Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

4 Survival Models Define (x) as a human at age x. Also, define that person s future lifetime as the continuous random variable T x. This means that x + T x represents that person s age at death. Define the lifetime distribution F x (t) = P[T x t] (1) the probabiliity that (x) does not survive beyond age x + t years, and it s complement, the survival function S x (t) = 1 F x (t).

5 Conditional Equivalence We have an important conditional relationship P[T x t] = P[T 0 x + t T 0 > x] Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

6 Conditional Equivalence We have an important conditional relationship and so P[T x t] = P[T 0 x + t T 0 > x] = P[x < T 0 x + t] P[T 0 > x] F x (t) = F 0(x + t) F 0 (x) 1 F 0 (x) (2) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

7 Conditional Equivalence We have an important conditional relationship and so P[T x t] = P[T 0 x + t T 0 > x] = P[x < T 0 x + t] P[T 0 > x] (2) In general we can extend this to F x (t) = F 0(x + t) F 0 (x) 1 F 0 (x) S x (t) = S 0(x + t) S 0 (x) (3) S x (t + u) = S x (t)s x+t (u) (4) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

8 Conditions and Assumptions Conditions on S x (t) S x (0) = 1 lim t S x (t) = 0 for all x 0 S x (t 1 ) S x (t 2 ) for all t 1 t 2 and x 0 Assumptions on S x (t) d dt S x(t) exists t R + lim t t S x (t) = 0 for all x 0 lim t t 2 S x (t) = 0 for all x 0 The last two conditions ensure that E[T x ] and E[T 2 x ] exist, respectively.

11 The Force of Mortality Recall from basic probability that the density of F x (t) is defined as f x (t) := d dt F x(t). Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

12 The Force of Mortality Recall from basic probability that the density of F x (t) is defined as f x (t) := d dt F x(t). It follows that f 0 (x) := d dx F F 0 (x + dx) F 0 (x) 0(x) = lim dx 0 + dx P[x < T 0 x + dx] = lim dx 0 + dx (6) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

13 The Force of Mortality However, we can find the conditional density, also known as the Force of Mortality via P[x < T 0 x + dx T 0 > x] µ x = lim dx 0 + dx P[T x dx] 1 S x (dx) = lim = lim dx 0 + dx dx 0 + dx 1 S x (dx) = lim dx 0 + dx 1 = lim dx 0 + S 0 (x+dx) S 0 (x) dx = 1 d S 0 (x) dx S 0(x) = f 0(x) S 0 (x) = 1 S 0 (x) S 0 (x + dx) lim S 0 (x) dx 0 + dx (7) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

14 The Force of Mortality In general, we can show µ x+t = 1 d S x (t) dt S x(t) = f x(t) S x (t) and integration of this relation leads to S x (t) = S 0(x + t) S 0 (x) x+t = e 0 µ sds e x 0 µsds = e x+t x µ sds = e t 0 µx+sds (8) (9) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

17 Gompertz Law / Makehams s Law One model of human mortality, postulated by Gompertz, is µ x = Bc x, where (B, c) (0, 1) (1, ). This is based on the assumption that mortality is age dependent, and that the growth rate for mortality is proportional to it s own value. Makeham proposed that there should also be an age independent component, and so Makeham s Law is µ x = A + Bc x (11) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

18 Gompertz Law / Makehams s Law Of course, when A = 0, this reduces back to Gompertz Law. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

19 Gompertz Law / Makehams s Law Of course, when A = 0, this reduces back to Gompertz Law.

21 Actuarial Notation Actuaries make the notational conventions tp x = P[T x > t] = S x (t) tq x = P[T x t] = F x (t) u tq x = P[u < T x u + t] = S x (u) S x (u + t) u tq x, also known as the deferred mortality probability, is the probability that (x) survives u years, and then dies in the subsequent t years. Another convention is that p x := 1 p x and q x := 1 q x. (13) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

Calculate e x, V [T x ] Since S 0 (x) = ( 1 x 6 120, it follows that in keeping with the model where survival is constrained to be les than 120, tp x = S 0(x + t) ( ) 1 = 1 t x : x + t 120 S 0 (x) 0 : x + t > 120 Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

36 Numerical Considerations for T x In general, computations for the mean and SD for T x will require numerical integration. For example, Table: 2.1: Gompertz Model Statistics: (B, c) = (0.0003, 1.07) x e x SD[T x ] x + e x Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

40 Relationship between e x and e x Recall e x = 0 tp x dt = j=0 j+1 By trapezoid rule for numerical integration, we obtain tp x dt 1 2 ( jp x + j+1 p x ), and so j+1 j e x j=0 1 2 ( jp x + j+1 p x ) = jp x = e x j=1 j tp x dt (26) As with all numerical schemes, this approximation can be refined when necessary.

42 Notes An extension of Gompertz - Makeham Laws is the GM(r, s) formula µ x = h 1 r (x) + e h2 s (x), where h 1 r (x), h 2 s (x) are polynomials of degree r and s, respectively. Hazard rate in survival analysis and failure rate in reliability theory is the same as what actuaries call force of mortality. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

47 Life Tables So, if there are l x independent individuals aged x with probability t p x of survival to age x + t, then we interpret l x+t as the expected number of survivors to age x + t out of l x independent individuals aged x.

56 Fractional Age Assumptions So far, the life table approach has mirrored the survival distribution method we encountered in the previous lecture. However, in detailing the life table, no information is presented on the cohort in between whole years. To account for this, we must make some fractional age assumptions. The following are equivalent: Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

57 Fractional Age Assumptions So far, the life table approach has mirrored the survival distribution method we encountered in the previous lecture. However, in detailing the life table, no information is presented on the cohort in between whole years. To account for this, we must make some fractional age assumptions. The following are equivalent: UDD1 For all (x, s) N [0, 1), we assume that s q x = s q x UDD2 For all x N, we assume R x := T x K x U(0, 1) R x is independent of K x. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

58 Proof of Equivalence Proof: UDD1 UDD2: Assume for all (x, s) N [0, 1), we assume that sq x = s q x. Then P [R x s] = and so R x U(0, 1). = P [R x s, K x = k] k=0 P [k T x k + s] k=0 = kp x sq x+k = kp x s q x+k k=0 k=0 = s kp x q x+k = s P [K x = k] = s k=0 k=0 (32) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

65 Contingent Events We have spent the previous two lectures on modeling human mortality. The need for such models in insurance pricing arises when designing contracts that are event-contingent. Such events include reaching retirement before the end of the underlying life (x). However, one can also write contracts that are dependent on a life (x) being admitted to college (planning for school), and also on (x) s external portfolios maintaining a minimal value over a time-interval (insuring external investments.)

66 Contingent Events: General Case Consider a probability space (Ω, F, P) and an event A F. If we are working with a force of interest δ s (ω) and the time of event W as τ W, then we have under the stated probability measure P the Expected Present Value of a payoff K(ω) contingent upon W Actuarial Encounters of the Third Kind!!

W := {event that (x) dies} τ W := T x P is obtained via historical observation and is thus a physical measure. Specifically, we use t p x obtained from life tables or via models of human mortality We do not assume now that a unique risk-neutral pricing measure P exists.

122 Woolhouse s Formula Equating the previous two approximations for ā x, we obtain ä (m) x ä x m 1 2m m2 1 12m 2 (δ + µ x) (99) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

123 Woolhouse s Formula For term annuities, we obtain the approximation ä (m) x:n ä x:n m 1 2m (1 v n np x ) m2 1 12m 2 (δ+µ x v n np x (δ+µ x+n )) (100) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

124 Woolhouse s Formula Letting m, we get ā x ä x (δ + µ x) ā x:n ä x:n 1 2 (1 v n np x ) 1 12 (δ + µ x v n np x (δ + µ x+n )) (101) For ā x with δ = 0, the approximation above reduces further to e x (e x + 1) µ x (102) NB: For life tables, we can compute these quantities using the approximation µ x 1 2 [ln (p x) + ln (p x+1 )] Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

125 Select and Ultimate Survival Models Notation: Aggregate Survival Models: Models for a large population, where tp x depends only on the current age x. Select (and Ultimate) Survival Models: Models for a select group of individuals that depend on the current age x and Future survival probabilities for an individual in the group depend on the individual s current age and on the age at which the individual joined the group d > 0 such that if an individual joined the group more than d years ago, future survival probabilities depend only on current age. So, after d years, the person is considered to be back in the aggregate population. Ultimately, a select survival model includes another event upon which probabilities are conditional on. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

126 Select and Ultimate Survival Models Notation: d is the select period The mortality applicable to lives after the select period is over is known as the ultimate mortality. A select group should have a different mortality rate, as they have been offered (selected for) life insurance. A question, of course, is the effect on mortality by maintaining proper health insurance. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

127 Example 3.8 Consider men who need to undergo surgery because they are suffering from a particular disease. The surgery is complicated and P[survive one year after surgery] = 0.5 (d, l 60, l 61, l 70 ) = (1, 89777, 89015, 77946) Calculate P[A], P[B], P[C], where A = {(60),about to have surgery, will be alive at age 70} B = {(60),had surgery at age 59, will be alive at age 70} C = {(60),had surgery at age 58, will be alive at age 70} (103) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

128 Example 3.8 P[A] = P[(60),about to have surgery, alive at age 61] l70 l 61 = = P[B] = l 70 l 60 = P[C] = l 70 l 60 = (104) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

129 Select Survival Models S [x]+s (t) = P[(x + s) selected at (x), survives to(x + s + t)] tq [x]+s = P[(x + s) selected at (x)dies before(x + s + t)] µ [x]+s = force of mortality at (x + s) for select at (x) ( ) 1 S[x]+s (h) = lim h 0 + h tp [x]+s = 1 t q [x]+s = S [x]+s (t) = e t 0 µ [x]+s+udu (105) For t < d, we refer to to the above as part of the select model. For t d, they are part of the ultimate model. Please read through section on Select Life Tables. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

130 Select Life Tables Sometimes, we wish to compute values from life tables. Consider again a model where x x 0, where x 0 is the initial age, and 0 t d. Then l x+d = d t p [x]+t l [x]+t (106) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

131 Example 3.9 Theorem Consider y x + d > x + s > x + t x x 0. Then y x tp [x]+t = l y l [x]+t s tp [x]+t = l [x]+s l [x]+t (107) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

132 Example 3.9 Proof. y x tp [x]+t = y x d p [x]+d d t p [x]+t = y x d p x+d d t p [x]+t = l y l x+d l x+d l [x]+t = l y l [x]+t s tp [x]+t = d t p [x]+t d sp [x]+s (108) = l x+d l [x]+t l [x]+s l x+d = l [x]+s l [x]+t Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

133 Example 3.11 A select survival model has a select period of three years. Its ultimate mortality is equivalent to the US Life Tables, 2002 Females of which an extract is shown below. Information given is that for all x 65, ( p[x], p [x 1]+1, p [x 2]+2 ) = (0.999, 0.998, 0.997). (109) Table: 3.5: Extract from US LIfe Tables, 2002 Females x l x Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

134 Example 3.11 Calculate the probability that a woman currently aged 70 will survive to age 75 given that 1 she was select at age 67: 2 she was select at age 68 3 she was select at age 69 4 she was select at age 70 Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

135 Example p [70 3]+3 = 5 p 70 = l 75 l 70 = p [70 2]+2 = l [68]+2+5 = l 75 l [68]+2 l [68]+2 = l 75 l 75 = l [68]+3 1p l [68] p [68]+2 = 4 p 71 1p [68]+2 = = (110) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

136 Example p [70 1]+1 = l [69]+1+5 l [69]+1 = l 75 l [69]+1 = l 75 l [69]+3 ( 1 p [69]+1 ) ( 1 p [69]+2 ) = l 75 l 72 ( 1 p [69]+1 ) ( 1 p [69]+2 ) = = p [70] = l 75 l 73 ( 1 p [70] ) ( 1 p [70]+1 ) ( 1 p [70]+2 ) = = (111) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

140 Example 3.13 A select survival model has a two-year select period and is specified as follows. The ultimate part of the model follows Makeham s law, where (A, B, c) = ( , , 1.124): µ x = ( ) (1.124) x (113) The select part of the model is such that for 0 s 2, and so for 0 t 2, µ [x]+s = s µ x+s (114) ( tp [x] = e t 0 µ [x]+sds = exp [0.9 2 t t ln (0.9) + ct 0.9 t ln ( ) 0.9 c )] (115) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

141 Example 3.13 It follows that given an initial cohort at age x 0, that is given l x0, we can compute the entries of a select life table via l x = p x 1 l x 1 l [x]+1 = l x+2 p [x]+1 l [x] = l x+2 2p [x] (116) Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

143 What is a Premium? When entering into a contract, the financial obligations of all parties must be specified. In an insurance contract, the insurance company agrees to pay the policyholder benefits in return for premium payments. The premiums secure the benefits as well as pay the company for expenses attached to the administation of the policy Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283

144 Premium Types A Net Premium does not explicitly allow for company s expenses, while a Office or Gross Premium does. There may be a Single Premium or or a series of payments that could even match with the policyholder s salary freequency. It is important to note that premiums are paid as soon as the contract is signed, otherwise the policyholder would attain coverage before paying for it with the first premium. This could be seen as an arbitrage opportunity - non-zero probability of gain with no money up front. Albert Cohen (MSU) STT 455-6: Actuarial Models MSU / 283
