Chapter 23 - Cost of Guaranteed and Options

Discussion in 'SP2' started by animeshsarkargkp, Mar 10, 2019.

  1. Hi,

    Can anybody please confirm that calculation of the cost of mortality option using North American Method or Conventional Method is no longer in course?

    Regards,

    Hi Animesh

    There's certainly far less about them, and indeed the syllabus and Core Reading no longer use those names, so the past big exam calculation questions on options are no longer in.

    That said, describing the principles of cashflows methods for costing mortality options and the assumptions needed are still in the course, so a question based on that is still a possibility.

    Best wishes
    Lynn
