  • Abstract
    The value of Unitized With-Profit contract is affected by surrender, guaranteed interest rate and bonus strategy. This paper is intended to construct a valuation model for Unitized With-Profit Contract considering all these factors. In this model, these elements can be valued separately underpinned by Monte Carlo techniques. From the numerical results, we concluded that the effect of surrender option shouldn´t be overlooked while pricing this kind of contracts.
