Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing Annuities Markets: The Experience of Chile is part of a multicountry World Bank project analyzing the market for retirement products. Among countries that have reformed their pension systems since the early 1990s, the Chilean case has emerged as the most relevant for drawing policy lessons on the role of the private sector in the provision of retirement income for two reasons: the depth, sophistication, and efficiency of the country's retirement products market, and the fact that this market was successfully developed from scratch by a middle-income country. The book examines in det.

Book Synopsis Annuity Markets and Pension Reform by : George A. (Sandy) Mackenzie
Download or read book Annuity Markets and Pension Reform written by George A. (Sandy) Mackenzie and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-07-24 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2006 book treats two vital public policy issues: how should distributions from individual accounts be regulated, and how can the market for private annuities function better? It provides a comprehensive survey of the issues that arise when contributors to individual accounts become eligible for distributions. It also addresses the questions of whether annuitization or other restrictions on distributions should be mandatory, and if so, can the provision of annuities be privatized? Its analytical framework is applicable to a broad range of countries. Given the diminishing importance of public pensions around the world, the growing number of the elderly, and the increasing importance of defined contribution plans, the voluntary demand for private annuities is going to grow. It is vital that annuities be reasonably priced and that the annuity market be effectively regulated. The book investigates both issues, and proposes reforms to enhance the efficiency of the annuity market.
Book Synopsis A Summary and Update of Developing Annuities Markets by : Roberto de Rezende Rocha
Download or read book A Summary and Update of Developing Annuities Markets written by Roberto de Rezende Rocha and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid growth of the market for retirement products in Chile has its origins in the pension reform that was implemented in 1981. But the successful development of an active annuity market also reflects many other factors. This paper summarizes and updates an earlier longer study on the development of the Chilean annuity market. The update focuses on the numerous changes that were introduced in 2008. The most striking aspect of the Chilean experience is the very high rate of annuitization. This has been linked to the restrictions that have been applied to lump-sum withdrawals, the offer of inflation-protected annuities, and the robust prudential regulation of providers. But the level of annuitization has also been supported by the annuitization incentives provided to early retirees and the influence of brokers and sales agents. The recent regulatory changes have weakened the impact of the last two factors, while strengthening the demand for annuities at normal retirement.
Book Synopsis Annuity Markets by : Edmund Stuart Cannon
Download or read book Annuity Markets written by Edmund Stuart Cannon and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2008 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pension Crisis concerns the changing demographic profile of the economy: an increasing number of elderly persons supported by fewer young people. Governments around the world are responding to this impending crisis by shifting their pension policies away from pay-as-you-go systems towards individual savings schemes. These savings need to be converted into a pension at retirement, and annuities provide this function. This book is a comprehensive study of annuity markets. The book starts by outlining the context of public policy towards pensions, and explains the different types of annuities available, focusing on the UK which has the largest annuity market in the world. It examines how annuities are priced, and describes the techniques of mortality measurement. As a background, it provides a history of annuities, and the experience of annuity markets in a number of other countries. The book outlines the economic theory behind annuities, and explains how annuities insure consumers against longevity risks. It goes on to describes how annuities markets function: how they work, and whether they are efficient, leading onto a discussion of the annuity puzzle. The book concludes by discussing the regulatory framework, assets available to back annuity liabilities, and recent developments in annuity markets.

Book Synopsis The Role of Annuity Markets in Financing Retirement by : Jeffrey R. Brown
Download or read book The Role of Annuity Markets in Financing Retirement written by Jeffrey R. Brown and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2001-11-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annuity insurance products help protect retirees against outliving their incomes. Dramatic advances in life expectancy mean that today's retirees must plan on living into their eighties, their nineties, and even beyond. Longer life expectancies are the symbol of a prosperous society, but this progress also means that some retirees will need to plan conservatively and cut back substantially on their living standards or risk living so long that they exhaust their resources. This book examines the role that life annuities can play in helping people protect themselves against such outcomes. A life annuity is an insurance product that pays out a periodic amount for as long as the annuitant is alive, in exchange for a premium. The book begins with a history of life annuity markets during the twentieth century in the United States and elsewhere. It then explores recent trends in annuity pricing and money's worth, as well as the economic value generated for purchasers of these products. The book explains the potential importance of inflation-protected annuities and stock-market-linked variable annuities in providing more complete retirement security. The concluding chapters examine life annuities in various institutional settings and the tax treatment of annuity products.
Book Synopsis The Mexican Pension Annuity Market by : Gregorio Impavido
Download or read book The Mexican Pension Annuity Market written by Gregorio Impavido and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the performance and development of the Mexican pension annuity market established as a consequence of the 1997 pension reform. The Mexican experience displays interesting characteristics providing lessons for other countries that still need to design the decumulation phase of their newly established second pillars. At the same, time it raises some technical and policy concerns that need addressing as they could hamper, in the future, the healthy development of the market. The paper concludes that: 1) general life insurance companies may better hedge longevity risk than specialized annuity companies; 2) competition should be based on prices rather than additional products; 3) better disclosure of options under the 1973 and 1997 social security laws should be given to disability and life annuitants; and 4) various measures should be taken to improve asset liability management including allowing companies to trade over the counter derivatives and substituting over time the regulatory asset liability management framework with an economic asset liability management framework.

Book Synopsis Managing Life Insurer Risk and Profitability by : Andy Wong
Download or read book Managing Life Insurer Risk and Profitability written by Andy Wong and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changing demographics creates the potential for the expansion of existing and new products to manage longevity risk. Life annuities address this risk, yet these annuity product markets are thin. Insurers are concerned about the long term risks associated with these longevity products and capital requirements. Life insurers also offer life insurance products, whole-of-life and term, that provide an opportunity to offset longevity risks. This can allow capital efficient longevity risk products to be sold as part of a product portfolio. Natural hedging, or the offsetting of risks in life insurance and annuity business, provides a way of managing capital efficiently as well as improving profitability. This paper uses stochastic mortality and interest rate models to assess life and annuity capital requirements and quantify the benefits of natural hedging taking into account relative profit loadings on products. The benefits of offering longevity products, in terms of capital requirements, as well as the importance of the type of life insurance products offered are illustrated using standard life and annuity products. The impact of capital requirements, such as solvency II with a one-year horizon, are considered and compared to multiple period risk measures to confirm the results hold for regulatory capital requirements.
