description Unit-linked contracts are wrapped with some death, maturity and accumulation guarantees such as the guaranteed minimum maturity benefit, the guaranteed minimum death benefit, the guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit, the guaranteed minimum income benefit, and/or the guaranteed minimum surrender benefit. According to Romanian legislation which regulates the unit-linked life insurance market, unit-linked life insurance contracts pass most of the investment risk to the policyholder and involve no investment risk for the insurer. Although the Romanian legislation authorizes the Romanian insurers to offer unit-linked contracts without investment guarantees, this research provides a proposal of a theoretical and empirical basis for modelling liabilities for unit-linked insurance contracts with incorporated investment guarantees. The aim of this study is to offer an optimal theoretical approach for simulating liabilities for unit-linked life insurance contracts with incorporated death benefit and maturity benefit.
