摘要
This paper investigates dynamic hedging strategies for pension and annuity liabilities that are exposed to longevity risk. In particular, we consider a hedger who wishes to minimize the variance of her hedging error using index-based longevity-linked derivatives. To cope with the fact that liquidity of longevity-linked derivatives is still limited, we consider a liquidity constrained case where the hedger can only trade longevity-linked derivatives at a frequency lower than other assets. Time-consistent, closed-form solutions of optimal hedging strategies are obtained under a forward mortality framework. In the numerical illustration, we show that lowering the trading of the longevity-linked derivatives to a 2-year frequency only leads to a slight loss of the hedging performance. Moreover, even when the longevity-linked derivatives are traded at a very low (5-year) frequency, dynamic hedging strategies still significantly outperform the static one.
