Hello, I know this sounds like a very basic question and it can trace it roots to as early as chapter 1 or 2 in the course notes. The notes said the mortality risk is the sum at risk, which is the benefit under the contract - reserve, because that is the money that you have not yet had and hence the risk. But when I went onto the withdrawal risk, it said that it depends on the asset share level. I do understand the basic logic, but shouldn't you need to subtract the reserve as well as you will release your reserve too when a withdrawal event happen? Or have I just missed out that the asset share has already included the release of reserve? Shouldn't withdrawal risk be just Withdrawal benefit amount - reserve?
Sorry I know this sounds very basic (and I think so too), but the question has been pondering around for a good while now. So appreciate if someone can help me out...
