7 Longevity Risks
8 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Different kinds of Longevity risk Today s mortality Experience Analyses give an indication of today s mortality for a specific portfolio Detailed analyses are only possible where enough data is available; hence, socioeconomic patterns might be overlooked for smaller portfolios Future mortality: improvements are very volatile and there are many different opinions on how mortality improvements will develop in the future Ancillary Benefits: Spouse pension, escalations, commutations, etc. Micro longevity risk: Longevity risk concerning the specific longevity of individuals considering the individual s age, health status, lifestyle etc.; focus is on individuals Macro longevity risk: Longevity risk concerning the longevity of large collections of individuals considering the group s past and present mortality and the changes in future mortality; focus is on common determinants of current and future mortality model 8

29 Derivatives
30 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Value hedge versus cash-flow hedge Direct and indirect hedges Value hedge: hedge against an asset / liability with a fixed value that changes according to supply and demand Cash-flow hedge: hedge derived from cash flows received from two or more financial products Both hedges are used to hedge against changes in the value of the asset The cash-flow hedge is linked to an asset/liability that provides regular payments to/from the holder Direct hedge: hedge in which the cash market instrument being hedged is hedged by an options or futures contract on the same underlying instrument Indirect hedge: hedge based on a parameter influencing index that should actually be covered 31
31 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Index solutions Forwards q-forward: capital market instrument for transferring longevity or mortality risk Involves the exchange of realized mortality rate of a population at some future date, in return for a fixed mortality rate agreed at inception q-forwards form the basis from which many other more complex derivatives can be constructed S-forward: cash settled contract linked to survival rates of a given population Basic building-block for longevity swaps used by pension funds and (re)insurers Swaps essentially comprise a stream of S-forwards with different maturity dates Also referred to as the tpx-forward 32
32 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up S-forwards for Life Settlements Value hedge, directly hedging survivorship rate The investor s return in life settlements depends on time to payment of the sum assured. Ensuring payment of the sum assured at a specific date secures IRR Index based coverage against longevity risk in a Life Settlements portfolio: construct S-forward Pay premium (fixed leg) according to the expected value (notional) of the portfolio and a given date (tenor), notional equal to sum assured (less premiums) Receive floating leg according to the actual sum assured for the given portfolio at the given date This construction allows to hedge the systematic risk of longevity, but not the unsystematic risk of an individual 33
33 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Index Solution Example Mortality Forward Ceding Company (Seller) Floating Notional x Realised mortality rate Fix Notional x Strike rate Reassurer (Buyer) Buyer pays Strike rate Net Settlement at end of tenor Floor Cap Realised index mortality Seller pays 34
34 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Mortality Forward Typically indirect value hedge Pay-out structure mortality forward Tenor Pay-out (strike rate less realised mortality rate) mortality No basis risk transferred, only systematic risk Strike rate During the lifetime of the contract an index is published Mortality rate higher than expected: seller has to pay, mortality rate lower than expected: buyer has to pay Fixed limited duration of trade Might be attractive due to savings in the cost of capital, although the cover is quite expensive 35
35 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up EIB / BNP Longevity Bond (never sold) Setup and problems Announced in 11/2004 and attempted to issue by the European Investment Bank BNP Paribas was the originator, the longevity risk was reinsured 540 million, 25 year maturity (may be too short) Amortizing bond Floating coupon payments tied to cohort survivor index (English and Welsh males age 65) Required upfront payment by hedgers Cost to hedge ~20 basis points Credit risk (bank, reassurer) Cross-currency interest-rate swap between EIB and BNP involved: EIB pays floating euros and receives fixed sterling Intended to be an indirect cash flow hedge 36
36 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Other capital market transactions Recent activities in the market Kortis (2010) International Bank for Reconstruction and Development issued longevity trend bond of USD 50 million Duration 8 years Covers improvements experienced by older UK males against younger US males Indirectly hedging the value of the correlation Pall UK Pension Fund (2011) JP Morgan takes on GBP 70 million of risk of improving longevity 10-year term in which the fund s trustees can choose to adjust size or structure of the deal If the life expectancy improves at a greater rate than specified in the contract the fund receives an insurance payout Indirect value hedge 37
37 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Other capital market transactions Recent activities in the market Pandemic Bonds Vita Cat Bonds (2003, 2005, 2006) Nathan (2008) AEGON / Deutsche Bank longevity transaction (2012) Based on Dutch population data one of the first longevity deals outside of the UK Applied to a synthetic portfolio Enables Aegon to hedge the liabilities on a portion of their book of annuities Delta Lloyd in EUR 12 billion (?) index-based longevity swap with Reinsurer (2014) 38

40 Life Settlements
41 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Life Settlements An overview Life Settlement: sale of an existing life insurance policy to an investor for more than its cash surrender value, but less than its net death benefit The third party pays the premiums and has the right to lapse surrender sell the policy to another party package the policies and sell them to In case the original beneficiary dies and the policy is still in force, the benefit goes to the investor But: investor can run out of money to pay premiums 43
42 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Life settlements versus pension funds Life Settlements Life Expectancies are assessed individually individual health status is important Expectation of income return from Investors (Minimum) premium must be paid to keep in-force A number of options available to the investor Index-covers: Index usually built from a concrete portfolio of life settlement policies Pension/annuity risks Very long periods Life Expectancies of individuals not very relevant (could be tens of thousands of beneficiaries) Index-covers: Index covers usually take population mortality into account rather than a concrete portfolio Essentially no options available 44
43 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Life settlement covers Specific covers LE+2 cover: Offered by Goshawk Syndicate in the early noughties Upfront premium (Re)insurer buys policy from the investor at its face amount in case the underlying life survives two years longer than expected at purchase (contingent cost insurance) Payment to Goshawk limited to premium Yield Collar Stop Loss (per policy) Ensures yield of life settlement policy to remain within predefined range (minimum yield to maximum yield) Reassurer benefits from early deaths Reassurer assumes policy as salvage when minimum yield is reached Offers upside and downside for both parties 45
44 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Life settlement covers Aggregate covers On an aggregate basis Similar to swap Exchange fixed and floating legs Swap Sum assured Premiums Stop Loss cover Upfront premium Payments are made based on the number of survivors at a predefined point in time in the future Reassurer pays if number of survivors exceeds a threshold Amounts weighting (e.g. sum assured) possible 46
45 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Life settlement covers Synthetics Principle-at-risk bond Index created from mortality on underlying portfolio of life settlements Invest in life settlement and hedge some of the risk (indirect value hedge) Sell bond with principle based on index Principle reduces as more insured lives survive Overhedging/speculation possible by selling more bonds than the seller is exposed to Variants Only gain right to track lives in a portfolio and speculate on the performance of the bond Overhedging/speculation possible by selling more bonds than the seller is exposed to 47
46 Wrap up
47 Introduction Longevity Risks Mortality Improvements Reinsurance Swap Derivatives Life Settlements Wrap up Wrap up Volume of Longevity market increases steadily over time Pensions/annuities: New products emerge, partially requiring a very detailed understanding of the key drivers of mortality Longevity Swap is standard reinsurance products in the UK: Direct cash flow hedge covering all risks (systematic and unsystematic) Some index solutions have already been signed and many more are currently in development Life Settlements: Popular not only in the US, but also in large parts of Western Europe and Japan, mainly outright sale or non-proportional covers Basis risk (unsystematic risk) much more relevant Index solutions more prevalent, index refers to specific portfolio (basis risk transferred) 46
