How to quantify uncertainty in Solvecny II

In Solvency II, uncertainty is quantified as a dispersion measure (variance or quantile) of changes in prediction, with one year of additional information. The best estimate at time t is Rt = E(C∞|Ft) while it become, at time t + 1

  • Rt+1 = E(C∞|Ft+1).

The goal is to estimate E

  • [E(C∞|Ft+1) − E(C∞|Ft)]2|Ft

Quantifying uncertainty in odds/tails games

In statistics, the mean squared error is a standard measure to quantify the uncertainty of an estimator, i.e. mse( θ) = E

  • θ − θ

2 In order to formalize the prediction process in claims reserving consider the following simpler case. Let {x1, · · · , xn} denote an i.i.d. B(p) sample. We want to predict Sh = Xn+1 + · · · + Xn+h. Let n Sh = ψ(Xn+1, · · · , Xn+h) = h · pn denote the natural predictor for Sh, at time n. Since Sh is a random variable (θ was a constant) define mse(n Sh) = E

  • n

Sh − E(Sh) 2 20

and msep(n Sh) = E

  • n

Sh − E(Sh) 2 + E

  • [E(Sh) − Sh]2

= mse(n Sh) + Var(Sh) where the first term is a process error and the second term a estimation error. It is also possible to calculate the information given the information available at time n, i.e. a conditional msep, msepcn(n Sh) = E

What are we looking for ?

In Solvency II requirements, CDRn+1 = [n Sh] − [xn+1 + n+1 Sh−1] This defines a martingale since E(CDRn+1|Fn) = 0 and what is required is to estimate msepcn(CDRn+1) i.e. find msepcn(CDRn+1). 22

Having an estimator of the uncertainty

Let us continue with our repeated tails/heads game. Let pn = [x1 + · · · + xn]/n, so that Var( pn) = p(1 − p) n thus mse(n Sh) = mse(h · pn) = h2 · mse( pn) = h2 n p(1 − p),

  • r

msep(n Sh) = nhp(1 − p) + h2 n p(1 − p) = nh + h2 n p(1 − p) i.e. msep(n Sh) = h(n + h) n p(1 − p). 26

Thus, this quantity can be estimated as

  • msep(n

Sh) = h(n + h) n

  • pn(1 −

pn). while the mse estimator was

  • mse(n

Sh) = h2 n pn(1 − pn) Looking at the msepc at time n, we have msepcn(n Sh) = Var(S|Fn) + mse(n Sh|Fn) 27

SLIDE 28

Arthur CHARPENTIER, IBNR and one-year uncertainty

Having an estimator of the uncertainty

Looking at the msepc at time n, we have msepcn(n Sh) = Var(S|Fn) + mse(n Sh|Fn) where Var(S|Fn) = Var(Xn+1 + · · · + Xn+h|x1, · · · , xn) = Var(Xn+1 + · · · + Xn+h) = hp(1 − p) and mse(n Sh|Fn) =

  • E(Sh|Fn) − n

This quantity can be estimated as

  • msepcn(n

Sh) = h pn(1 − pn) + 0. i.e. we keep only the variance process term. Mack (1993) suggested to use partial information to estimate the second term. Define D = {Xi, i ≤ n} and Bk = {Xi, i ≤ n, i ≤ k} with k ≤ n. Define

The one year horizon uncertainty

In Solvency II, insurance companies are requiered to estimate the msepc, at time n, of the difference between Xn+1 + n+1 S(h−1) and n S(h). Those two quantities estimate the same things, at different dates,

  • n

S(h) is a predictor for Sh at time n

  • Xn+1 + n+1

S(h−1) is a predictor for Sh at time n + 1, If we admit that we are looking for the following quantity (as in Merz & W¨ uthrich (2008)) msepcn = E

  • [Xn+1 + (h − 1) ·

pn+1 − h · pn]2 |Fn

  • i.e.

msepcn = E n + h n + 1 Xn+1 + n − h n + 1 pn 2 |Fn

  • msepcn = (n + h)2

Merz & W¨ uthrich’s one year uncertainty

Based on some martingale properties, one can prove that E(CDRi(n + 1)|Fn) = 0 (neither boni nor mali can be expected). Further, it can be proved that (CDRi(n + 1))n’s are non correlated, and thus msepcn(CDRi(n + 1)) = Var(CDRi(n + 1)|Fn) = E(CDRi(n + 1)2|Fn) Merz & W¨ uthrich (2008) proved that the one year horizon error can be estimated with a formula similar to Mack (1993)

Bootstrap and unccertainty

Bootstrap is now a standard nonparametric technique used to quantify uncertainty. In the linear model, Y (x) = E(Y |X = x) = x′ β while Y (x) = E(Y |X = x) + ε, and the uncertainty is related to Var( Y (x)) = Var(x′ β) = x′Var( β)x Var(Y (x)) = Var(x′ β + ε) ≈ Var( Y (x)) + σ2 To derive confidence interval or quantiles of Y (x) or Y (x) we need further assuming, like a distribution for residuals ε Instead of giving an analytic formula, monte carlo simulations can be used. The idea is to generate samples {(X⋆

i , Y ⋆ i ), i = 1, ..., n} or {(X⋆ i ,

Y (X⋆

i ) + ε⋆ i ), i = 1, ..., n}

Why a Poisson model for IBNR ?

Hachemeister & Stanard (1975), Kremer (1985) and Mack(1991) proved that with a log-Poisson regression model on incremental payments, the sum of predicted payments corresponds to the Chain Ladder estimator. Recall that Yi,j ∼ P(Li + Cj), i.e.

  • we consider two factors, line Li and column Cj
  • we assume that E(Yi,j|F) = exp[Li + Cj] (since the link function is log)
  • we assume further that Var(Yi,j|F) = exp[Li + Cj] = E(Yi,j (since we consider

a Poisson regression) 63

Why a Poisson model for IBNR ?

Adding additional factors is complex (too many parameters, and need to forecast a calendar factor, if any). Changing the link function is not usual, and having a multiplicative model yield to natural interpretations, Why not changing the distribution (i.e. the variance function) ? = ⇒ consider Tweedie models. 64

Tweedie models

Assume here that the variance function is V ar(Y ) = ϕE(Y )p for some p ∈ [0, 1]. p = 1 is obtained with a Poisson model, p = 2 with a Gamma model. If p ∈ (1, 2), we obtain a compound Poisson distribution. 65
