Renda mínima garantida - prós e contras

O projeto procura levantar aspectos positivos e negativos de um programa de renda mínima. Examina também experiências de programas de dispêndio para os pobres em países desenvolvidos e comenta sobre aspectos que poderiam ser melhor avaliados por pesquisadores brasileiros.

Financial guarantees in Brazilian life insurance and pension plans

Recently regulated Brazilian life and pension products offer a benefit structure composed of minimum guaranteed annual rate, in°ation adjustment according to a price index and participation on an investment fund performance. We present a valuation model for these products. We establish a fair condition relationship between minimum guarantees and participation rates, and explore its behavior over a space of maturities, interest rates, and also fund and price index volatilities and correlation. Besides consistency to reference models, we found that the effect of the fund volatility is conditioned to the price index volatility level and the correlation between them.
