Description: The article highlights key considerations as companies begin to reserve for their IUL products under PBR.

Description: In physics and engineering education, Fermi problems require solutions based on good approximate calculations with little or no actual data, involving making justified guesses and deducing bounds without using sophisticated tools. The idea of Fermi problems are of particular relevance to today's actuaries, as pricing, reserving, and financial reporting involve more and more complex stochastic components. The paper discusses some approximate solutions developed in academia in the spirit of Fermi problems.

Description: This discussion is about the new procedures that are being used or are contemplated in the preparation of new rate books and policy forms with reserves and cash values computed under the 1958 CSO Table.
