Book Description
Retirees face a difficult choice between annuitization from insurance firms and self-management or so-called self-annuitization. Self-annuitization could provide a higher consumption by investing more assets on equity market but with a risk that retirees may outlive the income from their self-managed assets. Using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic model, also called the Vasicek model, for the rate of return, we focus our study on the ruin probability in retirement. We show how asset mix, initial rate of return, and gender impact the ruin probability in retirement. We derive a recursive formula to calculate an approximate distribution for the present value of the life annuity function under our stochastic model. Finally, we use our model to illustrate how a VaR technique can help determine the optimal consumption for a retiree with a certain tolerance to ruin under different retirement goals.

Applications of Stochastic Optimal Control to Economics and Finance
Author: Salvatore Federico
Publisher:
ISBN: 9783039360581
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
In a world dominated by uncertainty, modeling and understanding the optimal behavior of agents is of the utmost importance. Many problems in economics, finance, and actuarial science naturally require decision makers to undertake choices in stochastic environments. Examples include optimal individual consumption and retirement choices, optimal management of portfolios and risk, hedging, optimal timing issues in pricing American options, and investment decisions. Stochastic control theory provides the methods and results to tackle all such problems. This book is a collection of the papers published in the Special Issue "Applications of Stochastic Optimal Control to Economics and Finance", which appeared in the open access journal Risks in 2019. It contains seven peer-reviewed papers dealing with stochastic control models motivated by important questions in economics and finance. Each model is rigorously mathematically funded and treated, and the numerical methods are employed to derive the optimal solution. The topics of the book's chapters range from optimal public debt management to optimal reinsurance, real options in energy markets, and optimal portfolio choice in partial and complete information settings. From a mathematical point of view, techniques and arguments of dynamic programming theory, filtering theory, optimal stopping, one-dimensional diffusions and multi-dimensional jump processes are used.

The Calculus of Retirement Income
Author: Moshe A. Milevsky
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139454862
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
This 2006 book introduces and develops the basic actuarial models and underlying pricing of life-contingent pension annuities and life insurance from a unique financial perspective. The ideas and techniques are then applied to the real-world problem of generating sustainable retirement income towards the end of the human life-cycle. The role of lifetime income, longevity insurance, and systematic withdrawal plans are investigated in a parsimonious framework. The underlying technology and terminology of the book are based on continuous-time financial economics by merging analytic laws of mortality with the dynamics of equity markets and interest rates. Nonetheless, the book requires a minimal background in mathematics and emphasizes applications and examples more than proofs and theorems. It can serve as an ideal textbook for an applied course on wealth management and retirement planning in addition to being a reference for quantitatively-inclined financial planners.
