In classical life insurance mathematics the obligations of the
insurance company towards the policy holders were calculated on
artificial conservative assumptions on mortality and interest
rates. However, this approach is being superseded by developments
in international accounting and solvency standards coupled with
other advances enabling a market-based valuation of risk, i.e., its
price if traded in a free market. The book describes these new
approaches, and is the first to explain them in conjunction with
more traditional methods. The various chapters address specific
aspects of market-based valuation. The exposition integrates
methods and results from financial and insurance mathematics, and
is based on the entries in a life insurance company's market
accounting scheme. The book will be of great interest and use to
students and practitioners who need an introduction to this area,
and who seek a practical yet sound guide to life insurance
accounting and product development.
