A portfolio of endowment policies and its limiting distribution

Author

  • Parker, Gary

Abstract

Two methods for approximating the limiting distribution of the present value of the benefits of a portfolio of identical endowment insurance contracts are suggested. The model used assumes that both future lifetimes and interest rates are random. The first method is similar to the one presented in Parker (1994b). The second method is based on the relationship between temporary and endowment insurance contracts.
