1 Modelling mortgage insurance as a multi-state process Greg Taylor Taylor Fry Consulting Actuaries University of Melbourne University of New South Wales Peter Mulquiney Taylor Fry Consulting Actuaries UNSW Actuarial Studies Research Symposium 11 November 2005

2 Mortgage insurance (aka Lenders mortgage insurance (LMI)) Indemnifies lender against loss in the event of default by the borrower when collateral property is sold Loss would occur if sale price less associated costs is insufficient to meet outstanding loan principal

3 Mortgage insurance (cont’d) Policies have relatively unique properties Single premium but multi-year coverage Claims experience influenced by variables related to housing sector of economy Claim occurs at a defined sequence of events

4 Earning of premium Accounting Standard requires that earning of premium be proportionate to incidence of risk Typical situation Premium is earned in fixed percentages over the years of a policy’s life E.g. 5% in Year 1, 15% Year 2, etc True incidence of risk over lifetime of a cohort of policies will vary with economic conditions Downturn in house prices likely to generate claims

5 Literature survey Taylor (1994): Modelled claims experience with a GLM with external economic variables as predictors Ley & O’Dowd (2000): Extended GLM to allow for changes in LMI market and products Driussi & Isaacs (2000): Overview of LMI industry, less concerned with modelling. Contains useful data Kelly & Smith (2005): Stochastic model of external economic predictors

6 Multi-state process leading to a claim Healthy In arrears Property in possession Property sold Claim Loan discharged Cured Borrower’s sale

7 Transition matrix Each distinct probability requires a separate model

8 Required models 1. Probability Healthy  In arrears 2. Probability of cure of arrears 3. Probability In arrears  PIP 4. Probability PIP  Sold 5. Probability Sold  Claim 6. Distribution of claim sizes The case [In arrears  Sold] may be treated as: In arrears  PIP  Sold Nil duration

9 Structure of sub-models – transition probabilities GLMs for all 6 sub-models Five of them are probabilities Y (m) ij ~ Bin [1,1 - exp {u (m) ij log [1 - p (m) ij ]}], m=1,…,5 where Y (m) ij is binomial response of the i-th policy in the j-th calendar interval under the m-th model e.g. the transition Healthy  In arrears p (m) ij is the associated probability u (m) ij is the time on risk of the relevant transition logit p (m) ij = Σ k β (m) k x ijk with x ijk predictors β (m) k their coefficients

10 Structure of sub-models – claim size Y (6) ij ~ EDF(μ ij,q) log μ ij = Σ k β (6) k x ijk E[Y (6) ij ] = μ ij Var[Y (6) ij ] = (φ/w ij ) μ ij q We found q=1.5 satisfactory Right skewed But shorter tailed than Gamma

11 Predictors Several categories Policy variables (specific to individual policies) Static, e.g. date of policy issue, Loan-to-valuation ratio (LVR) Dynamic, e.g. number of quarters since transition into current status External economic variables (common to all policies), e.g. interest rates, rates of housing price increases Manufactured risk indicators (derivatives of the previous categories)

12 Manufactured risk indicators – an example Potential claim size = Amount of arrears less Principal repaid less Original loan amount X [Housing price growth factor X (1-q) / LVR -1] where Housing price growth relates to period from inception to the current date q = proportion of property value lost in deadweight costs on sale Growth in borrower’s equity

13 Predictors (cont’d) There may be many potential predictors available in the data base, e.g. State of Australia Issue quarter LVR Stock price growth etc We found a total of more than 30 statistically significant predictors over the 6 models Many appear in more than one model More than 20 in one of the models

14 Forecast claims experience We take the fitting of the GLM sub-models to claims experience as routine No further comment on this Conventional form of forecasting future claims experience consists of plugging parameter estimates into models over future periods This procedure is undesirable on two counts Not feasible computationally Produces biased forecast

15 Computational feasibility Example of evolution of a claim Too many combinations for feasible computation

16 Forecast bias Forecast liability (outstanding claims or premiums) takes form L* = ∑ i,j L (j) i (β, x* ij ) where L (j) i (.,.) = simulated liability cash flow of policy i in future calendar quarter j β = parameter estimates x* ij = future values of predictors

17 Forecast bias (cont’d) Forecast liability (outstanding claims or premiums) takes form L* = ∑ i,j L (j) i (β, x* ij ) x* ij T = [ξ* i T,ζ* ij T,z* ij T ] Dynamic policy variables (non-stochastic) External economic variables (stochastic) Static policy variables (non-stochastic)

18 Jensen’s inequality Jensen’s inequality. Let f be a function that is convex downward. Let X be a random variable. Then E[f(X)] ≥ f(E[X]) with equality if and only if either f is linear; or the distribution of X is concentrated at a single point

19 Jensen’s inequality Jensen’s inequality. Let f be a function that is convex downward. Let X be a random variable. Then E[f(X)] ≥ f(E[X]) with equality if and only if either f is linear; or the distribution of X is concentrated at a single point y=f(x) E[f(x)] f(E[X])

20 Forecast bias (cont’d) L* = ∑ i,j L (j) i (β, x* ij ) = ∑ i,j L (j) i (.,.,., z* ij ) [z stochastic] L* is convex downward in some of the components of z* ij E.g. z* ijk = rate of increase of house price index By Jensen’s inequality E[L*] ≥ ∑ i,j L (j) i (.,.,., E[z* ij ]) Plugging expected values of external variables into forecast leads to downward bias This result has recently been observed empirically by Kelly and Smith (2005) For other lines of business, this is usually not significant because the external variables have much lower dispersion (e.g. superimposed inflation)

21 Forecast error Forecast model is fully stochastic Forecast error (MSEP) can be estimated, consisting of: Specification error (Model) parameter error Process error Predictor error Due to future stochastic variation of predictors

22 Estimation of forecast error By means of an abbreviated form of bootstrap We refer to it as a fast bootstrap Conventional bootstrapping (re-sampling) is not computationally feasible

23 Conventional bootstrap

24 Fast bootstrap Just sample assuming normally distributed with model estimates of mean and standard error

25 Computation L* = ∑ i,j L (j) i (β, x* ij ) Need to simulate for: All values of i (=policy), j (=future period) All stochastic components of x* ij This produces: Central estimate Process error Then need to re-simulate for each drawing of pseudo-parameters This produces: Parameter error Stochastic predictor error
