Hi All,
We have a question on page 3 of Chapter 4 as below (part a):
Whether a unit-linked or a without-profits benefit structure has higher expected cost for the policyholder?
Answer in CMP - Without-profits contract because the insurance company has to include significant margins in price in order to cover the risk of making losses from future adverse experience.
My interpretation was Unit-linked contract should have higher expected cost for policyholder because of adverse investment experience and it is borne by policyholder.
Can anyone please help explain the above?
Thanks,
Yash
