3 Contribution Goal: obtain the optimal annuity decisions; Setting: - Normative approach; - Life Cycle model; Contribution to existing literature: - Allow for systematic longevity risk; - Allow for deferred. : - Systematic longevity risk makes less attractive; - Postponing annuity purchase not optimal; - Utility loss of deferred is small. Contribution Annuity menu Literature on immediate Literature on deferred Outline of presentation Longevity forecast UK Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 3 / 29
4 Annuity menu Annuity: Product which provides a yearly income stream until death; Consider two types of : - Immediate ; - Deferred. Contribution Annuity menu Literature on immediate Literature on deferred Outline of presentation Longevity forecast UK Timing decision: - Purchasing at retirement; - Postponing the purchase of. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 4 / 29
5 Literature on immediate Yaari (1965): Full annuitization is optimal; Empirical results: few voluntary purchase. Extensive literature with possible explanations: - Actuarially unfairness; - Equity risk premium. Milevsky (1998): postpone until mortality credit = equity risk premium; Milevsky and Young (2002): real option to annuitize is still valuable until the mid-70s or mid-80s; Contribution Annuity menu Literature on immediate Literature on deferred Outline of presentation Longevity forecast UK Blake, Cairns, and Dowd (2003): Optimal annuitization age in the range of 65 to 80. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 5 / 29
6 Literature on deferred Idea: Milevsky (2005, NAAJ): Buy with long deferral period at retirement; Deferred : - Cheap; - Provide real longevity insurance; Research on deferral period: - Evidence that it may not reduce lifetime ruin probability (Bayaraktar and Young, 2009, NAAJ); - Deferred annuity (20 years) compared with immediate is utility increasing when loading factor is high enough (Horneff and Maurer, 2008).

9 Preferences Optimization Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 9 / 29
10 Preferences CRRA intertemporally separable expected lifetime utility function: E t Control variables: τ 0 τp x,t β τ C1 γ τ 1 γ - Annuity; - Consumption; - Fraction liquid wealth in risky asset.. Preferences Optimization Constraints: - Wealth dynamics; - Short-selling constraint; - Positive wealth level. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 10 / 29
11 Optimization Dynamic optimization problem. Without annuity decision: see, among others: Brandt, Goyal, Clara, and Stroud (2005, RFS) & Koijen, Nijman, and Werker (2009, RFS). Maximize utility conditional on: - Timing of purchasing of ; - Type of annuity (deferral period). Preferences Optimization Assumptions: - Purchase only once ; - Only one type (deferral period) of. Compare utility in the different sub-optima. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 11 / 29
12 Financial market Longevity uncertainty Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 12 / 29
13 Financial market Sources of risk: - Investment risk; - Idiosyncratic (non-systematic) longevity risk; - Systematic longevity risk. Financial market consists of - Riskfree asset: Yearly time-independent return r rf. - Risky asset: Stock price S t follows a Brownian motion with drift: ds t = µs t dt + σs t dz t, Financial market Longevity uncertainty where µ = r rf + λσ. λ: Equity risk premium; σ: Volatility parameter. -. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 13 / 29
14 Longevity uncertainty Cairns-Blake-Dowd-model is given by: ( ) qx,t log = k (1) t + x k (2) t + ǫ x,t, 1 q x,t where q x,t is the time-t mortality probability for a x-year old. - k (1) t : General level of mortality (generally decreasing over time) - k (2) t : General level of increase in mortality by age (generally increasing over time) Financial market Longevity uncertainty Forecast processes using random walk with drift; Allow for parameter risk using Jeffreys prior and Bayesian updating. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 14 / 29
15 Pricing Price of deferred Price of immediate Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 15 / 29
16 Pricing Mitchell et al. (1999, AER): loading factor 7.3% for immediate annuity. Explanation: transaction cost and profit. Actuarially unfairness due to: - Price of systematic longevity risk. When: - Efficient market; - No arbitrage. The time-t value of an annuity with a deferral period of d years: V t (A (d) x,t ) = ( ) 1 τ E Q t [ τ p x,t ] 1 + r rf. τ d Pricing Price of deferred Price of immediate Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 16 / 29
17 Price of deferred Price Risk margin (% of market price) Pricing Price of deferred Price of immediate Age at first payment (65+d) Deferred are much cheaper; Age at first payment (65+d) Loading factor increases with deferral period. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 17 / 29
18 Price of immediate Present value of the market price of an annuity Pricing Price of deferred Price of immediate Age at first payment (65+s+d) Generally cheaper to postpone the purchase of ; Future prices of an are currently stochastic. Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 18 / 29

20 Deferral period Advantage longer deferral period: - Lower longevity risk premium; - Cheaper more liquid wealth when MC is low; Allows for more capital gains from equity risk premium; Disadvantage longer deferral period: - Lower gains from mortality credit; - Fewer periods with income guarantee; More uncertainty in consumption level; Less consumption smoothing. Deferral period Quantification utility CEC deferred Annuity income Postponing CEC immediate Systematic longevity risk Longevity risk Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 20 / 29
21 Quantification utility The utility is quantified by: CEC: Certainty Equivalent Consumption: How much deterministic yearly consumption do I need in order to be equally well off as in the optimal strategy; The CEC is normalized by: The CEC in case of fully immediate annuitization (CEC fa ); Hence, CEC/CEC fa relative utility gain by optimal choices instead of currently fully annuitizing.

24 Postponing Postponing the annuity decision allows for consumption smoothing; It also allows for capital gains from equity risk premium; Postponing less longevity risk conditional on realized survival probabilities; Reduces longevity risk premium. Future annuity prices are stochastic.

26 Systematic longevity risk Effect systematic longevity risk on consumption level: - Survival probabilities low more consumption; - Survival probabilities high less consumption; Effect including systematic longevity risk on annuity choice: - Immediate becomes less attractive postponing more favorable; Fraction wealth with systematic longevity risk: 84%; without systematic longevity risk: 90%; Due to: uncertainty in the value of. Deferral period Quantification utility CEC deferred Annuity income Postponing CEC immediate Systematic longevity risk Longevity risk - prices are stochastic postponing less favorable.

28 Annuity Decisions with Systematic Longevity Risk 28 / 29
29 There exists systematic longevity risk; Systematic longevity risk has a non-zero market price; Systematic longevity risk affects annuity decision; - provide lower utility; Postponing annuity purchase: - Systematic longevity risk uncertain prices; - Postponing not utility increasing; Type of annuity: - Deferred are preferable; - Optimal deferral period is short.
