Longevity risk solved


Holiday news today...

An unknown Dutch actuary (don't quote me !) claims to have found the definitive solution for what's called 'longevity risk'.

Instead of a traditional non-comprehensive actuarial equation, the proof is one of those rare, and sometimes dangerous or wrong, visual proofs in (actuarial) mathematics.



Anyway, have a nice holiday!
