History of One of the first attempts to manage risk dates back to
insurance ‘the 17th or 18th century. Japanese rice farmers made
agreements with buyers to deliver them a specific
amount of rice on a certain date for an already specified
price.
Starting in the 1980s, some large US banks established
departments specialized in financial risk management,
which indicates the growing importance of risk
management. In the 1990s some scandals happened at
several institutions and large losses were incurred.
Basic Concepts
~<=— a
Insurance is an important part of our economy. Without the protection insurance
affords us, we would have to spend more time and money protecting ourselves
from the risks of loss and less time in enjoying life and pursuing goals.
Insurance is a very old concept. Basically, it means many people paying a little
money to create a bigger pool of money so that anyone who is unfortunate
‘enough to suffer a loss is reimbursed financially for that loss.
The person purchasing insurance, known as the insured, agrees to make payments
of prescribed amounts to the company. These payments are typically known as,
premiums.neti ee Ree eu

There is no single definition of risk. Economists, behavioral scientists, risk
ieorists, statisticians, and actuaries each have their own concept of risk.
However, risk historically has been defined in terms of uncertainty. Based on this
concept, risk is defined as uncertainty concerning the occurrence of a loss .
For example,
1- the risk of being killed in an auto accident is present because uncertainty is present.
2- The risk of lung cancer for smokers is present because uncertainty is present,
3+ The risk of flunking a college course is present because uncertainty is present.The risk of the individual assets and of the portfolios that we talked about so far, is the type of
diversifiable risk, which can be reduced by diversification of assets within portfolios. This type
is usually firm-specific risk. It is also called unsystematic risk, for it is related to internal
Conditions and circumstances and varies from firm to firm. It is due to a random set of
specifications unique to a specific firm, such as lawsuits in which the firm is involved, the
‘marketing program it conducts, a workers’ strike that it faces, or the type and quality of
contracts it wins or loses. All these events and circumstances can be mitigated with a certain
degree of the firm's diversification of assets.
The other type of risk is the undiversifiable or systematic risk, which is general and market
related. It is due to circumstances and conditions that all firms are affected by simultaneously
and with no discrimination 5<

The insurance company must be able to calculate the chance.
An insurance risk class is a group of individuals or companies that have
similar characteristics, which are used to determine the risk associated with
underwriting a new policy and the premium that should be charged for
coverage. Determining the insurance risk class is a primary component of an
insurance company’s underwriting process.
+An insurance risk class is a way for insurers to underwrite policies based on
one's belonging to a particular risk group.
*People in each risk group will generally share similar characteristics that
help insurers better estimate the chances that the policyholder will file a
claim. Gale... |*Riskier risk groups will pay higher premiums. for example, people who
are sick, older, or have a poor driving record.
*Risk (1) Any chance of loss; (2) Uncertainty; (3) The insured or the
property or object to which the insurance policy relates.
*Risk Control techniques or programs used to reduce or eliminate the
chance of loss and to reduce the total amount of loss should an event
occur.
Risk and Return
Basic Concepts
The Return on an investment asset is defined by the change in value, in addition
to any cash distribution, all expressed as a percentage of the asset original value.
Areturn of premium (ROP) life insurance rider is an optional add-on to a term
life policy that, if you outlive the policy term, pays you all or some of the money
you spent on policy payments.
A return of premium life insurance policy may be worth it if you can afford to
pay a higher premium. However, if you don’t outlive your term, it will have
been much more expensive than a traditional term plan, while essentially
offering the same death benefit.It’s important to understand that you aren’t receiving any additional money, but
the money that you have previously paid into the policy. There is also a chance
you won’t be able to see this benefit come to fruition.
Return-of-premium life insurance is a term life policy designed to give you
money back after the term life ends.
Example I: let’s say you buy a 20-year return of premium term life insurance
plan. If you pass within the 20-year term, your family will receive the death
benefit and the premium payments will be kept by the insurer. However, if you
outlive the 20-year term, you will be able to get a refund of your premium
payments. a
Example 2: if you're a healthy 40-year-old looking to buy a 20-year, $500,000 policy,
ou can expect to pay nearly five times as much for a return of premium policy
fompared with a standard term life insurance policy without ROP benefits. Sample
premium costs for ROP life insurance for a 40-year-old non-smoker in excellent health
is about $1,600 for a man and $1,450 for a woman. Of course, these amounts vary by
provider and with other known factors in place.
By comparison, a 40-year-old male with excellent health buying a $500,000 term life
insurance policy will pay about $228 annually for a 10-year term and $300 annually
for a 20-year term. If you smoke and are in poor health, those premium costs can jump
to about $750 for a 10-year policy and over $1,000 annually for a 20-year policy.
Finally, in the economics and finance literature, authors often make a
distinction between risk and uncertainty. The term “risk” is often used in
situations where the probability of possible outcomes can be estimated with
some accuracy, while “uncertainty” is used in situations where such
probabilities cannot be estimated. A risk can be defined as a random number,
X, whose actual outcome (or realization) is unknown. Yet, a set of possible
outcomes has to be specified, and probabilities over this set have to be
assigned. The following table illustrates the relation between payoffs and
states of the world.Payoffs of two coupon bonds

Events And Random
Amounts
Objective risk: (also called degree of risk) is defined as the relative
variation of actual loss from expected loss .
Chance of loss is closely related to the concept of risk. Chance of loss is
defined as the probability that an event will occur . Like risk, “probability” has
both objective and subjective aspects.
% Objective probability refers to the long-run relative frequency of an event
based on the assumptions of an infinite number of observations and of no
change in the underlying conditions. For example, the probability of getting a
head from the toss of a perfectly balanced coin is 1/2 because there are two
sides, and only one is a head. an FOLikewise, the probability of rolling a 6 with a single die is 1/6, since there are
six sides and only one side has six dots
Definition: sample space $ for a probability experiment is the set of all possible
outcomes of the experiment. Note that the set E is a subset of the sample space ,
S since every element of E is an element of S.
Subjective probability: is the individual's personal estimate of the chance of
Joss. Subjective probability need not coincide with objective probability. For
example, people who buy a lottery ticket on their birthday may believe it is
their lucky day and overestimate the small chance of WiNMiD gee.
Q Risk managers can employ number of techniques to assist in predicting loss
levels, including the following:
m= Probability analysis m Regression analysis m Forecasting
Q Probability analysis: to determine expected losses, insurance actuaries
apply probability and statistical analysis to given loss situations. situations.
Q The probability ( P) of such an event is equal to the number of events likely
to occur ( X) divided by the number of exposure units (N). Thus, if a
vehicle fleet has 500 vehicles and on average 100 vehicles suffer physical
damage each year, = —
1- The probability that a fleet vehicle will be damaged in any given year is:
P(physical damage) 100/500= .20 or 20%
he risk manager must also be concerned with the characteristics of the event
being analyzed. Some events are independent events the occurrence does not
affect the occurrence of another event.
Example: The probability of a fire at the City 1 is 5 % and that the probability
of a fire at the City 2 is 4 %. Obviously, the occurrence of one of these events
does not influence the occurrence of the other event. If events are independent,
the probability that they will occur together is the product of the individual
probabilities.Thus, the probability that both production facilities will be damaged by fire is= P(fire
at City 1) * P(fire at City 2) = P(fire at both City's) =.04 *.05 =.002 or 2%.
Events are mutually exclusive if the occurrence of one event precludes the occurrence
of the second event. mutually exclusive case: P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)
For example, if'a building is destroyed by fire, it cannot also be destroyed by flood.
If the probability that a building will be destroyed by fire is 2 % and the probability
that the building will be destroyed by flood is 1 %, then the probability the building
will be destroyed by either fire or flood is= P(fire destroys) P(flood destroys) P(fire or
flood destroys) .02 + .01= .03 or 3%
If the independent events are not mutually exclusive, then more than one
event could occur. Care must be taken not to “double-count” when
determining the probability that at least one event will occur. not mutually
exclusive = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).
For example, if the probability of minor fire damage is 4 % and the
probability of minor flood damage is 3 %, then the probability of at least
one of these events occurring is= P(fire) + P(flood) - P(fire and flood) =
P(at least one event)= .04 + .03 — (.04 *.03) =.0688 or 6.88%.ers

Assume that two business owners each own an
identical storage building valued at $50,000.
Assume there is a 10 percent chance in any
year that each building will be destroyed by a
peril, and that a loss to either building is an
independent event. The expected annual loss
for each owner is $5000 as shown below:
Expected loss = .90 * $0 + .10 * $50,000 = $5000
= ae odA common measure of risk is the standard deviation, which is the square root of
ihe variance. The standard deviation (SD) for the expected value of the loss is
5,000, as shown below: v = ¥ (xi — 1)?pi/ Epi
SD:
$5000)? +0.10($50,000 — $5000)*) = $15000
Suppose instead of bearing the risk of loss individually the two owners decide to
pool (combine) their loss exposures, and each agrees to pay an equal share of any
loss that might occur. Under nario, there are four possible outcomes
Possible Outcomes Probability as shown in the following table:~
Possible Outcomes Probability table
First building destroyed, second building no loss
First building no loss, second building destroyed
Both buildings are destroyed 10°10 =.01
v Expected loss =.81*$0 + .09*$25,000+.90*$25,000 +.01 * $50,000= $5,000
The reduced probability of the extreme values is reflected in a lower
standard deviation (SD) as shown below:

standard deviation continues to decline =come down while the expected value
of the loss remains unchanged .Standard Deviation (a):

> A correlation coefficient this close to +100 would be considered an
indication of perfectly positively correlated assets which exhibit similar
dynamics, which makes them move up and down in tandem.
This type of matching pattern would not benefit from diversification in
risk reduction.
A correlation coefficient of -97.3% shows the case opposite to that of the
X and Y combination. It indicates that assets Z and W are almost perfectly
negatively correlated, which means that the return changes of these assets
go up and down opposite to each other.
This is the ideal opportunity for these assets to cancel each other out. If
‘one is down, the other is up to compensate—that is the beauty of
diversification. The combination of such assets in a portfolio gives the
opportunity to have an optimal impact of diversifying the risk away.ample

I- Declarations: Declarations are statements that provide information about the
particular property or activity to be insured. The declarations section usually can be
found on the first page of the policy or on a policy insert.
2- Definitions: Insurance contracts typically contain a page or section of definitions.
The purpose of the various definitions is to define clearly the meaning of key words
or phrases so that coverage under the policy can be determined more easily.
3- Insuring agreement: The insuring agreement is the heart of an insurance
contract. The insuring agreement summarizes the major promises of the insurer. The
insurer agrees to do certain things, such as paying losses from covered perils,
providing certain service:
4- Exclusions: Exclusions are another basic part of any insurance contract.
There are three major types of exclusions (1) excluded perils, (2) excluded
losses, and (3) excluded property. Exclusions are necessary because the peril
may be considered uninsurable by commercial insurers.
5- Conditions: Conditions are another important part of an insurance
contract, Conditions are provisions in the policy that qualify or place
limitations on the insurer’s promise to perform. In effect, the conditions
section imposes certain duties on the insured.
6- Miscellaneous provisions: Insurance contracts also contain a number of
miscellaneous provisions.

80.11Life Annuities
Life annuities are different from the annuities certain that we discussed earlier.
In a major distinction, life annuities are more related to life insurance for being
contingent. A contingent contract involves a sequence of payments that are
dependent on an occurrence of a certain event that cannot be foretold, In this
case, it is either death or living up to a certain age. This element of uncertainty
requires the use of probability distribution, which in this context is in the form of
a mortality table. Like life insurance, life annuities are dealt with by insurance
companies and the person to whom the annuity would be payable, is called an
nnuitant, as opposed to the “ d”. Life insurance proceeds are payable to
survivors upon the death of the insured.
The typical stated premium of life annuities and life insurance is usually a gross
premium, which includes the loading costs in addition to the net premium.
Loading costs include a company’s operating expenses and profit margin.
The net premium is the pure cost of the ultimate benefits to the annuitant or
the insured, usually broken down into installments unless it is paid in a single
payment on the day of purchase. In this case it is called a net single premium,
while a yearly installment is called a net annual premium.
Our calculations here focus on the net premium but without the loading
component, since the loading would vary from one company to another. This is.
why we assume that the present value of the net premium would equal the
present value of all future benefits.3

Since fe41 = le — de. thenhe present value of $1,00 for each person alive at age x. Collectively
for each age group it would be calculated by multiplying the present
value for $1.00 (v*) or 1/(1 +r)" by the number of living people in
age group x
: the present value for $1.00 of a payment to the beneficiaries of people
who die at age x. It is calculated by multiplying the number of people
who will die at age x, (dy) by the present value of $1.00 for the time
x+l.

Ordinary Whole Life
Annuity
This type of annuity, also called an immediate whole life annuity is
distinguished by the receipt of its payments at the end of each year of the
annuitant’s life. We can look at these payments as a series of individual pure
endowments, and for this reason, let’s consider @ as the present value of
$1.00 a year for each person in the age group x. The collective endowments

This is the same as a whole life annui
except that the first payment is made at the time of
purchase and continues to be made after that on the same time of each year for the rest of the
annuitant’s life. Since we designated our formulas based on a $1.00 payment, and we stated
s annuity has the first payment made one year earlier, we can conclude that the whole

Deferred Whole Life
Annuity
This is an annuity whose first payment is deferred to a period (n) that is beyond
one year after the purchase date. Since the purchase occurs at age x, the deferment
period would be x + n for the annuity due, which starts on the day of purchase. It
could also be x+1+ n for the ordinary annuity, which starts one year after the
purchase date, at x+1

Temporary Life Annuity Due In an ip temporary life annuity, the pay-
ments are made at the end of each year, but if the payments are made at the fj
beginning of each year, the annuity would be considered a temporary annuity
due (d,1), and it would be calculated as the difference between a whole life
annuity due (@,), and a deferred annuity due (n|éx):Find the net present value of the annuity in Example 17 if the annuitant requests that the
payments be made at the beginning of the year.
This request makes the annuity a temporary annuity due:

Forborne Temporary Life Annuity Due Sometimes the annuitant of the tem-
porary life annuity due chooses not to cash the payments, allowing them to
accumulate for a certain period of time (1) and become a pure endowment. In
this case, when the annuitant forbears to draw the annuity, it would be called a
forborne temporary life annuity (11 F,), which is calculated as

Deferred Temporary
Life Annuity
Deferred Temporary Life Annuity This
the last type of temporary life annuity,
along
ith the ordinary and due types. Payments of this annuity will not start
until a period of time (k) has elapsed from the day of annuity purchase; k is
more than one year. The deferred temporary life annuity is most likely to be an
annuity due, and its present value (k|éi,;z1) Would be calculated as
where k is the deferment period, x is the annuitant age, and n is the annuity §
time. For a payment P, the net single premium or the present value of the
deferred temporary life annuity would be
6
years paying an annual payment of $2,500 to a 15-year-old boy. This
annuity comes with a stipulation that the annuitant will not start to receive
