Abstract

We study market-consistent valuation of liability cash flows motivated by current regulatory frameworks for the insurance industry. The value assigned to an insurance liability is the consequence of (1) considering a hypothetical transfer of an insurance company's liabilities, and financial assets intended to hedge these liabilities, to an empty corporate entity, and (2) considering the circumstances under which a capital provider would want to achieve and maintain ownership of this corporate entity given limited liability for the owner and that capital requirements have to be met at any time for continued ownership.
