seminario di Luca Regis presso Prometeia - Bologna
by Giacomo Scandolo 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

Il giorno Giovedì 29 Maggio 2014, alle ore 14:30 presso la sede di Prometeia (sala grande, primo piano) via G.Marconi 43, Bologna Luca REGIS (IMT Lucca) terrà un seminario dal titolo "Longevity risk modelling and hedging via continuous-time cohort models" Abstract Longevity risk, i.e. the risk of unexpected changes in the survivorship of policyholders, is perceived as one of the major threats to the long-run solvency of annuity providers, such as pension funds. Continuous-time models represent a useful tool in the modelling of stochastic mortality. Non-mean reverting affine cohort processes (Luciano and Vigna, 2008) provide a parsimonious but accurate description of mortality tables. They are particularly suited to pricing and hedging purposes, due to their analytical tractability. I present applications of such models to the management of insurance portfolios. I focus on longevity risk hedging techniques, such as natural hedging, and reinsurance strategies. I will discuss the implementation and the effectiveness of such strategies, as well as the effects of different risk sources (interest-rate risk, investment risk) - along with longevity risk - on the solvency of insurers.

Seminario Claudio Fontana a Padova
by Tiziano Vargiolu 29 May '14

29 May '14

Siamo lieti di annunciare il seguente seminario: Claudio FONTANA, "A general HJM framework for multiple curve modeling" (joint work with Christa Cuchiero and Alessandro Gnoatto) al Dipartimento di Matematica (via Trieste 63, Padova), aula 2AB/40 (secondo piano), venerdi' 29 maggio ore 12. Abstract -------- We propose a general HJM approach to the modeling of multiple yield curves. In a general semimartingale setting, we model the term structure of multiplicative spreads between (normalized) FRA rates and simply compounded OIS risk-free forward rates. We derive HJM drift and consistency conditions ensuring absence of arbitrage and we show how to construct models such that spreads are greater than one and ordered with respect to the tenor's length. When the driving semimartingale is an affine process, we obtain a flexible Markovian structure which allows for simple valuation formulas for most interest rate derivatives.
