MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT EXAMPLES
Variables
xPV t = Unborrowed portion of the policy value at time t derived from contribution made at time ×
xSC t = Surrender Charge applicable at time t derived from contribution made at time ×
CSBt = Cash Surrender Benefit at time t
LAt = Value of Loan Account at time t
It = Amount of Indebtedness at time t
Lt = Loan requested at time t
(a) Single premium policies.
(1) Internal index.
Example 1:
Five-year guaranteed interest rate policy.
Assume this policy was issued three years ago with a five-year guaranteed interest rate of 12%. Currently, two-year single premium policies are issued with a two-year guaranteed interest rate of 10%.
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
(i) CSB3 = 0PV3 × 1.122/1.102 + LA3 − I30SC3
Alternatively:
(ii) CSB3 = 0PV 3[1 − (.10 − .12) × 2] + LA3 − I30SC3
Example 2:
Five-year guaranteed interest rate policy with cap.
Assume this policy was issued three years ago with a guaranteed interest rate of 12% in years 1-5, and a minimum interest guarantee of 5% in years 6-10. There is a 5% cap on market value adjustments. Currently, two-year guaranteed interest rates of 8% are being offered on similar policies.
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
CSB3 = 0PV3 ×1.12 2/1.082 cap of 5% + LA3 − I30SC3
= 0PV3 × 1.05 + LA 3 − I30SC3
(2) External index.
Example 3:
Five-year guaranteed interest rate policy.
Assume this policy was issued two years ago with a five-year guaranteed interest rate of 9%. At issue, the yield to maturity on five-year Treasury bills was 10%. Currently, three-year Treasury bills are yielding 12% to maturity.
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
(i) CBS2 = 0PV2 × 1.103/1.123 + LA2 − I20SC2
Alternatively:
(ii) CSB2 = 0PV 2[1 − (.12 − .10) × 3] + LA 2 − I20SC2
(b) Flexible premium policies.
(1) Internal index.
Example 4:
Five-year flexible premium guaranteed interest rate policy.
Assume this policy was issued three years ago, and the guaranteed interest rates to maturity (five years from issue) associated with deposits made during the first three policy years are as follows:
Time of depositGuaranteed interest rate to maturity
010%
19%
29%
Currently, two-year flexible premium policies are issued with a guaranteed interest rate to maturity of 8½% on first year deposits.
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
(i) CSB3 = 0PV3 × 1.102/1.0852 + 1PV3 × 1.092/1.0852
+ 2PV3×
1.092/1.0852 + LA3 − I3 − (0SC3 +1SC3 + 2SC 3)
Alternatively:
(ii) Let iavg =0PV 3 × .10 + 1PV3 × .09 + 2PV3 × .09/0PV3 + 1PV3 + 2PV3
Then:
CSB3 = [(0PV3 + 1PV3 + 2PV3) × (1 + iavg)2)[/(1.085)2 + LA 3= I3 − (0SC3 + 1SC3 +2SC3)
Example 5:
Five-year flexible premium, flexible maturity guaranteed interest rate policy.
Assume this policy was issued three years ago, and the guaranteed interest rates to maturity (five years from deposit) associated with deposits made during the first three policy years are as follows:
Time of depositGuaranteed interest rate to maturity
010%
110%
211%
Currently, the following guaranteed interest rates are offered on deposits to new issues of similar policies:
Years to maturityGuaranteed interest rate to maturity
28%
39%
410%
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
(i) CSB3 = 0PV3 × 1.102/1.082
+1 PV3 × 1.103/1.093
+ 2PV3 ×
1.114/1.104 + LA3 − I3 − (0SC3 +1SC3 + 2SC 3)
(ii) CSB3 = 0PV 3[1 − (.08 − .10) × 2[ +
1PV3[1 − (.09 − .10) × 3[ + 2PV 3[1 − (.10 − .11) × 4[
+ LA3 − I3 − (0SC 3+1SC3 + 2SC3)
Alternatively:
Letnavg = 0PV 3 × 2 +1PV3 × 3 + 2PV3 × 4/( 0PV3 +1PV3 + 2PV 3)
Assume navg= 3
Then:
(iii) CSB3 = 0PV 3 × 1.103 +1PV2 × 1.103 + 2PV3 × 1.113/1.093
+ LA3 − I3 − (0SC3 +1SC3 + 2SC 3)
(2) External index.
Example 6:
Five-year flexible premium guaranteed interest rate policy.
Assume this policy was issued three years ago with a five-year guaranteed interest rate of 9%. The yield to maturity on Treasury bills during this period was as follows:
TimeYears to maturityT–bill yield to maturity
0510%
149%
239%
Currently, two-year Treasury bills are yielding 8 ½% to maturity.
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
CSB3 = 0PV3 × 1.10 2/1.0852 +1PV3 ×
1.092/1.0852
+ 2PV3 × 1.092/1.0852
+ LA3 − I3(0SC3+1SC3 + 2SC3)
Example 7:
Five-year flexible premium, flexible maturity guaranteed interest rate policy.
Assume the same facts as in example 6, and assume that the following market values of $1,000, semiannual coupon Treasury bills are known:
TimeYears to maturityAnnual coupon rateMarket value
0510%$1,000
1510%$1,000
2511%$1,000
3210%$1,100
3310%$1,100
3411%$1,200
The current cash surrender benefit is determined to be:
CSB3 = 0PV3 × 1100/1000 +1PV3× 1100/1000
+ 2PV3 ×
1200/1000 + LA3− I3 − (0SC3 +1SC 3 + 2SC3)
(c) Loan activity.
A prime (′) indicates a value immediately prior to loan activity.
(1) Internal index.
Example 8:
Five-year guaranteed interest rate contract.
Assume a policy issued three years ago with a five-year guaranteed interest rate of 10%. Currently, two-year single premium policies are issued with a two-year guaranteed interest rate of 8%. Loan is made at the end of the third year.
0PV3 = 0PV′3 − L 3 ×(1.08)2/(1.10)2
LA3 = LA′3 + L3
I3 = I′3 + L3
CSB3 = 0PV3 × (1.10)2/(1.08)2 + LA3 − I30SC3
(2) External index.
Example 9::
Five-year guaranteed interest rate contract.
Assume a policy issued two years ago with a five -year guaranteed interest rate of 9%. At issue, the yield to maturity on five-year Treasury bills was 10%. Currently three-year Treasury bills are yielding 13% to maturity. Loan is made at the end of the second year.
0PV2 = 0PV′2 − L 2 ×(1.13)3/(1.10)3
LA2 = LA′2 + L2
I2 = I′2 + L2
CSB2 = 0PV2 × (1.10)3/(1.13)3 + LA2 − I20SC2
