Abstract

In this chapter we introduce the valuation portfolio of Buchwalder–Bühlmann–Merz–Wüthrich. The valuation portfolio provides a systematic approach for replicating insurance liabilities by financial instruments, leaving only the non-hedgeable risks. The latter are replaced by so-called best-estimates. The valuation portfolio allows for the valuation of insurance cash flows, it describes the dynamical component called claims development result and it analyzes the inherit prediction uncertainties. This construction is supplemented by explicit examples in life and non-life insurance.
