ACST355: Contingent Payments 2

Multiple decrement and multiple state models are considered and the valuation of benefits and contributions under superannuation plans is examined. Techniques for the valuation of annuity and assurance products involving two lives are developed. Expected cash flow models and profit test models are developed for life insurance products including traditional products, unbundled unit linked contracts and disability income insurance products. The concepts of pricing and reserving for future contingent liabilities, and the effect of the pricing and reserving basis on the emergence of profit are considered.
