    Abstract

    We consider evaluation methods for payoffs with an inherent financial risk as
    encountered for instance for portfolios held by pension funds and insurance
    companies. Pricing such payoffs in a way consistent to market prices typically
    involves combining actuarial techniques with methods from mathematical finance.
    We propose to extend standard actuarial principles by a new market-consistent
    evaluation procedure which we call `two step market evaluation.' This procedure
    preserves the structure of standard evaluation techniques and has many other
    appealing properties.

  2. Time-Consistent Actuarial Valuations.

    Abstract

    Recent theoretical results establish that time-consistent valuations (i.e.
    pricing operators) can be created by backward iteration of one-period
    valuations. In this paper we investigate the continuous-time limits of
    well-known actuarial premium principles when such backward iteration procedures
    are applied. We show that the one-period variance premiumprinciple converges to
    the non-linear exponential indifference valuation.
