I will be giving a short course in Switzerland next week, at the 6th R/Rmetrics Meielisalp Workshop & Summer School on Computational Finance and Financial Engineering organized by ETH Zürich, https://www.rmetrics.org/. The long version of the slides for the course on Actuarial models with R can be found online with the #Rmetrics tag, and the short version will be uploaded soon. There will be some practicals, based on Swiss mortality table for the part on demography. The datasets can be uploaded using the following code,
DEATH=read.table( "http://freakonometrics.free.fr/DeathsSwitzerland.txt", header=TRUE,skip=2) EXPOSURE=read.table( "http://freakonometrics.free.fr/ExposuresSwitzerland.txt", header=TRUE,skip=2) DEATH$Age=as.numeric(as.character(DEATH$Age)) DEATH=DEATH[-which(is.na(DEATH$Age)),] EXPOSURE$Age=as.numeric(as.character(EXPOSURE$Age)) EXPOSURE=EXPOSURE[-which(is.na(EXPOSURE$Age)),]
- based on those datasets, plot the log mortality rates for male and female,

- for those two datasets, plot the log mortality rates in 1900 and 1950, respectively
- for those two datasets, plot the log mortality rates for the cohort born on 1900 and 1950, respectively
- on the total dataset (male and female), fit a Lee-Carter model. Plot the age coefficients
- plot the time coefficients and propose a forecast for that series of estimators.
- plot the residuals obtained from the regression
- using those estimates, and the forecasts, project the log-mortality rates

- extrapolate the survival function of an insured aged 40 in 2000, and compare it with the one obtained on the longitudinal dataset.
- based on those survival functions, compute actuarial present values for several quantities, e.g. whole life annuities for some insured aged 40, and whole life insurances, and compare those values from 1900 till 2040 (on the graphs below, titles were inverted).
Then, we will briefly mention payment triangles. We will work on the triangle used on http://rworkingparty.wikidot.com/ that can be downloaded below,
OthLiabData=read.csv( "http://www.casact.org/research/reserve_data/othliab_pos.csv", header=TRUE, sep=",") library(plyr) OL=SumData=ddply(OthLiabData,.(AccidentYear,DevelopmentYear, DevelopmentLag),summarise,IncurLoss=sum(IncurLoss_H1-BulkLoss_H1), CumPaidLoss=sum(CumPaidLoss_H1), EarnedPremDIR= sum(EarnedPremDIR_H1)) LossTri <- as.triangle(OL, origin="AccidentYear", dev="DevelopmentLag", value="IncurLoss") Year=as.triangle(OL, origin="AccidentYear", dev="DevelopmentLag", value="DevelopmentYear") TRIANGLE=LossTri TRIANGLE[Year>1997]=NAHere, the triangle looks like that

- suggest an estimation for the amount of reserves, all years.
- using a Poisson regression, propose a VaR with level 99.5% for future payments, for all claims that already occurred.
