Description: This is the 1975 Report on Group Life Insurance Mortality.

Description: This paper presents a new insight into the mathematical structure of asset share-type calculations. Asset shares are interpreted as accumulations of insurance cash flows, which along with their related investment income, are treated as Stieltjes integrals. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1978, Vol. 30.

Description: This paper presents an analysis of group weekly indemnity continuation table data contributed by seven companies. Claims costs and other data are developed for this short term disability type coverage.

Description: This report presents mortality under individual immediate annuities, life income settlements, and matured deferred annuities between the 1971 and 1976 anniversaries.

Description: This paper presents a new group annuity mortality table which is being proposed as a new Statutory valuation table.

Description: This paper presents a method involving re-sampling 'with replacement but without random numbers', numerical convolutions for sums and quotients, and estimation of confidence intervals for trend in average size claim. In this paper, this method is applied to major medical claims.

Description: In this paper, methods are presented that allow the systematic graduation of multidimensional data subject to linear constraints. With these constraints the practitioner can impose limitations on the graduation that agree with prior knowledge. Discussions of this paper are included.

Description: This is the second report of the study of claim frequencies, charges, and claim costs for a sample of basic Group Hospital and Surgical Expense insurance plans. This report combines data with respect to experience during 1967, 1968, and 1969. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1971 Reports

Description: This paper discusses the purpose and nature of the benefit ratio [otherwise known as active life] reserve in relation to the class of health insurance contracts to which it is intended to apply. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1988, Vol. 40, Pt. 1.

Description: This paper discusses the pricing of bond options and interest-sensitive cash flows by discrete state/time models such as binomial lattices. Current binomial models are faulty because the put-call parity relationship may not hold for all periods and there may exist negative interest rates. This paper presents a binomial model without such riskless arbitrage opportunities. This model allows the initial term structure of interest rates to be prescribed exogenously, so that the model price for each stream of fixed and certain cash flows is the market price.
