The following details the required sensitivity to be completed and included as part of the
Pricing Document.
1. Allocation rate
The following (design) sensitivity tests need to be included:
a. Agent & staff cases allocation rate: Suggested change is the reduced
commission allows an increased allocation rate less 5% in first year
b. Large Cases: Scale needs to be determined
The following (competitive) sensitivity tests need to be included:
As per AIA with associated AIA surrender penalty scale
As per ACE with associated ACE surrender penalty scale
5. Mortality Rates
The following (design and competitive) sensitivity tests need to be included for
mortality rate charged:
Use experience plus margin of 25%
Use ACE mortality scale
Use AIA mortality scale
The following (profitability) sensitivity tests need to be included for mortality rate
charged:
Increase in experience by 100% , 200% and no change in rates charged clients
Decrease in experience by 20% and no change in rates charged to cleints
7. Lapse Rates
The following (design, competitive and profitability) sensitivity tests need to be
included:
High monthly lapse rates
Using traditional product lapse rates
No lapse rates
Use low followed by high i.e. 0% for first six years and then 10% thereafter
Assume large jump to 50% / 100% surrenders after surrender penalty period
ended
Assume when fund = total premiums paid large jump in surrender to 50% /
100% surrenders
8. TPD experience
The following (profitability) sensitivity tests need to be included:
Experience is additional 100% & 200% of loading
50%, 100% and 200% increase in experience
Sensitivity tests for premium reduction with no other change should be 3% p.a.,
5% p.a. and 10% p.a. Due to relationship between partial withdrawals and
premium reductions. As premium reductions and surrenders are linked sensitivity
tests combining change in both surrender pattern and premium reductions should
be performed.
The results of the cost and impact of the guarantees should be included here.
