Valuation of life insurance contracts using stochastic mortality rate and risk process modeling Çetinkaya, Şirzat; Hayfavi, Azize; Department of Financial Mathematics (2007) In life insurance contracts, actuaries generally value premiums using deterministic mortality rates and interest rates. They have ignored them stochastically in most of the studies. However it is known that neither interest rates nor mortality rates are constant. It is also known that companies may encounter insolvency problems such as ruin, so the ruin probability need to be added to the valuation of the life insurance contracts process. Insurance companies should model their surplus processes to price som...
Exchange rate pass-through to domestic prices in Turkish economy Alper, Koray; Gaygısız Lajunen, Esma; Department of Economics (2003) In this study, determinants and the evolution of the exchange rate passthrough to domestic inflation in the Turkish economy is analyzed. The analyses cover the 1987-2003 period. In the analyses, single equation أError Correction Modelsؤ are used to estimate the exchange rate pass-through. Estimation results suggest that alike other emerging countries, the degree of exchange rate passthrough to domestic prices is high and the pass-through is completed in a very short time span. Estimations results also indic...
Assessment of Solvency II requirements for Turkish insurance market Höbek, Mehmet; Kestel, Sevtap Ayşe; Department of Actuarial Sciences (2016) Solvency II is the new capital regime being in force as of January 2016 in European Union (EU). It has brought profound changes to the previous one, namely Solvency I, by introducing new methods for the calculation of solvency capital requirement (SCR) of insurance and reinsurance companies. Besides the standard formula which is composed of sub-modules for the calculation of different risks, insurance companies are also allowed to use their partial or full internal models for the calculation of SCR. Since b...
The Comparison of risk measures on claim distributions: Turkish motor insurance case Telkes, Cansu; Kestel, Sevtap Ayşe; Tank, Fatih; Department of Actuarial Sciences (2018) In this thesis, the impact of various risk measures on pricing methodology of automobile insurance product by using the historical claim data which is obtained from one of the most reputable insurance company in Turkey is investigated. To model the distribution of claim experience for pricing methodology, four right skewed distributions are chosen, namely Gamma, Weibull, Lognormal and Pareto. Two classical methods, which are methods of moment estimation and maximum likelihood estimation, are used to estimat...
Macroeconomic Policy and Unemployment by Economic Activity: Evidence from Turkey BERUMENT, MAHMUT HAKAN; DOĞAN, NÜKHET; Tansel, Aysıt (2009-05-01) This paper investigates how various macroeconomic policy shocks in Turkey affect unemployment and provides evidence on the differential responses of unemployment in selected sectors of economic activity. Our paper extends previous work in two respects. First, we consider not only the response of total unemployment, but also the response of unemployment by selected sectors of economic activity. Second, we consider not only the effect of monetary policy shocks, but also the effects of several other macroecono...
