Modelling claim dependencies for the general insurance industry with economic capital in view: an innovative approach with stochastic processes. This project will develop and enhance multi-dimensional models used to describe and assess the risks borne by general insurers. These innovative methods, which will be directly applicable by the industry, will strengthen the efficiency and the safety of the Australian economy.
Mandatory pre-funded retirement income schemes: Best policy and practice. This innovative project aims to leverage in-depth knowledge of two mandatory pre-funded retirement income systems, Australia and the Netherlands to create new findings to significantly advance policy and practice in these two countries. Mandatory pre-funded retirement income structures adopt a range of approaches regarding choice and drawdown structures. This project aims to use survey and experimental techniques, and stoc ....Mandatory pre-funded retirement income schemes: Best policy and practice. This innovative project aims to leverage in-depth knowledge of two mandatory pre-funded retirement income systems, Australia and the Netherlands to create new findings to significantly advance policy and practice in these two countries. Mandatory pre-funded retirement income structures adopt a range of approaches regarding choice and drawdown structures. This project aims to use survey and experimental techniques, and stochastic life-cycle models, to investigate comparative choice frameworks and the menu of retirement income products in the two countries. It aims to deliver models for improved policy and retirement income designs, producing outcomes which aim to generate global benefit as more countries move towards this pension paradigm.Read moreRead less
Long-term care financing and policy: Insights from a pilot program in China. This project aims to advance global knowledge and policy development around long-term care (LTC) provision by undertaking a comprehensive assessment of alternative funding and provision mechanisms. Drawing on a unique pilot of LTC delivery in China, the project aims to estimate and assess LTC cost and usage, and link this with international experience to quantify the impacts of alternative policy structures. Through met ....Long-term care financing and policy: Insights from a pilot program in China. This project aims to advance global knowledge and policy development around long-term care (LTC) provision by undertaking a comprehensive assessment of alternative funding and provision mechanisms. Drawing on a unique pilot of LTC delivery in China, the project aims to estimate and assess LTC cost and usage, and link this with international experience to quantify the impacts of alternative policy structures. Through methodological advances designed to incorporate the real-time data made available under the pilot, this project aims to deliver significantly improved projections of LTC usage and costs that will be important to governments and the insurance industry, globally. Leveraging a strong partnership between Australian and Chinese researchers, it aims to provide the evidence base needed for policy and industry planning in China, and to advance global knowledge to deal with this challenge.Read moreRead less
