Funded Activity Summary

Pricing and Hedging Extreme Maturity Contracts. Most Australians belong to superannuation schemes. Hence, the long term performance and risk of these investments is of particular importance to the welfare of Australia. This research will improve the life-long financial security of Australians by clearly demonstrating that many superannuation targets can be achieved with less capital than currently suggested. This project will provide new technology for enhancing the long term performance of superannuation funds, managed funds, investment banks and insurance companies, giving these Australian institutions a competitive advantage and permitting them to offer innovative financial products to mitigate extreme maturity financial risk in retirement.
