Robust Hedging of Withdrawal Guarantees (Extended Version)

Author

  • Andreas Kunz

Abstract

Withdrawal guarantees ensure the periodical deduction of a constant dollar-amount from a fund investment for a fixed number of periods. If the fund depletes before the last withdrawal, the guarantor has to finance the outstanding withdrawals. We derive a robust hedging strategy which leads to closed form solutions for the guarantee value.
