Overview of the Longevity-Mortality Hedge
CONFIDENTIAL © 2012 Risk Management Solutions, Inc.
An insurer writing both longevity and mortality business can
expect some degree of natural hedge:
– If life expectancy increases
Annuity losses (more pension payments)
Life gains (more premium income, less or more distant death benefit
payouts)
– If an excess mortality event occurs:
Life losses (increased / accelerated death benefit payouts and loss of
premium income)
Annuity gains (a certain number of pension contracts go away)

~£10bn of whole life coverage provides a material trend risk
hedge against a £1bn annuity book
Assuming independence: £60m of risk capital (£30m against
each book) can be pooled to give a diversified risk capital of
£42 million
SII permits a -25% correlation between longevity and
mortality trend risk: frees up an extra £6 million bringing the
diversified capital to £36 million
In current example economic risk capital falls to £30 million
(-50% correlation)
Trend Risk Hedge – from £60m of risk capital to £42m to £30m

~£6m of risk capital held at the 1-in-200 level against shocks
on £10bn of whole life coverage
Conversely annuity book with liability of £5bn stands to gain
~£6m from a 1-in-200 pandemic
As annuity book grows > £6-7bn, begin to expect a gain in
the event of a pandemic
As annuity book reaches £10bn only negligible potential for
a pandemic loss remains
Solvency II framework doesn’t recognize shock hedge: life
cat module only applies to portfolios that are short mortality
Shock Risk Hedge – as Annuity PV approaches Parity with Life Cover, Shock Risk is Neutralized

Targeting an Optimal Mix of Mortality and Longevity Risk
24
Insurer with an over concentration of Longevity Risk is in a
strong position to digest complementary Mortality Risk and
vice-versa
Complementary risk can be acquired via reinsurance,
insurance linked securities etc. targeting an optimal mix of
mortality and longevity risk
Unwanted risk can be disposed of via the same mechanisms

Life and annuity are well diversified lines of business
Risk between each is correlated at < 0%
Solvency II recognizes the trend risk offset which can be
leveraged for regulatory capital reductions
In addition firms writing both annuity and life may be able to
free-up economic risk capital by looking holistically at trend
and shock risk across all lines of business
Risk swaps are a cost efficient method for attaining a more
efficient capital position
