英文摘要:
It is known that the decision to purchase an annuity may be associated to an optimal stopping problem. However, little is known about optimal strategies, if the mortality force is a generic function of time and if the `subjective\' life expectancy of the investor differs from the `objective\' one adopted by insurance companies to price annuities. In this paper we address this problem considering an individual who invests in a fund and has the option to convert the fund\'s value into an annuity at any time. We formulate the problem as a real option and perform a detailed probabilistic study of the optimal stopping boundary. Due to the generic time-dependence of the mortality force, our optimal stopping problem requires new solution methods to deal with non-monotonic optimal boundaries.

中文摘要:
众所周知,购买年金的决定可能与最优停止问题有关。然而,如果死亡率是时间的一般函数,并且投资者的“主观”预期寿命与保险公司为年金定价所采用的“客观”预期寿命不同,那么对最优策略知之甚少。在本文中,我们讨论了这个问题,考虑到个人投资于基金,并有权随时将基金价值转换为年金。我们将问题描述为实物期权,并对最优停止边界进行详细的概率研究。由于死亡力的一般时间依赖性,我们的最优停止问题需要新的解决方法来处理非单调最优边界。
