Working Paper 125 was published in November 2019. This paper describes analysis of the term assurances dataset in 2011-2016 using generalised linear models (GLMs). The aims of this work were:
- To assess the fit of the “08” tables to the more recent data, and to inform a decision as to whether new tables are warranted; and
- To understand better the underlying risk drivers of experience, such as product type and sum assured band.
By using GLMs, we consider the effects of multiple factors simultaneously to provide an alternative view of the underlying experience.
The analysis uses a subset of the data underlying the “all offices” results for term assurances in the years 2011-2016 that we issued alongside Working Paper 123, in July 2019.
Note: this paper is available to Authorised Users only.

While many studies highlight the overall economic impact that biodiversity loss could have, it is much more difficult to quantify and understand the particular impact that is may have on individual businesses or communities. The management and measurement of these risks is a field where actuaries are well placed to contribute. -
The climate crisis and the degradation of our planet will affect societies everywhere. How we address these threats will require solutions that transcend borders. As a global profession, the actuarial community is well-placed to consider and propose effective risk management solutions to help manage the climate crisis.
