Influence <strong>of</strong> the Maturity <strong>of</strong> the Portfolio<br />

Let us now examine the influence <strong>of</strong> the maturity <strong>of</strong> the portfolio. To this end, let us consider<br />

the three different distributions <strong>of</strong> the age <strong>of</strong> the policies PrA = n = a n that are displayed<br />

in the following table:<br />

Age <strong>of</strong> policy Mature Young Old<br />

portfolio portfolio portfolio<br />

1 20% 30% 10%<br />

2 20% 25% 15%<br />

3 20% 20% 20%<br />

4 20% 15% 25%<br />

5 20% 10% 30%<br />

The first one is a uniform distribution which represents a mature portfolio. The second<br />

distribution represents a relatively young portfolio or a portfolio which is growing, i.e.<br />

PrA = n decreases with n. Finally, the third distribution represents an old portfolio or a<br />

portfolio which is declining, i.e. PrA = n increases with n.<br />

Asssuming a uniform initial distribution <strong>of</strong> the policyholders in the scale, we get the ¯r l s<br />

displayed in Table 8.11.<br />
