Model points and Tail-VaR in life insurance

Abstract

Often, actuaries replace a group of heterogeneous life insurance contracts (different age at policy issue, contract duration, sum insured, etc.) with a representative one in order to speed the computations. The present paper aims to homogenize a group of policies by controlling the impact on Tail-VaR and related risk measures.
