The Cross-Section of Asia-Pacific Mortality Dynamics: Implications for Longevity Risk Sharing.
- We present a newly-collected, age-gender, mortality dataset from seven countries in Asia-Pacific (APAC).
- Cross-hedging opportunities among longevity risk exposures in APAC are identified.
- Applications of our findings to mortality forwards are presented.
- The two largest countries in our sample (Japan and Republic of Korea) show diverging country-specific mortality trends.
