Abstract
The growing of ageing population causes many major negative impacts especially on pension plans and annuity providers. One of the impacts is on the exposure to longevity risk. There are various methods have been previously developed in order to quantify and classify longevity risk. However, there are some major drawbacks to these methods, especially in long-term mortality risk exposures studies. Therefore, this study is conducted in order to observe the potentiality of Association Rules Mining (ARM) in overcoming these drawbacks. The results show that ARM has an advantage of generating a less complex longevity profile based on the generated association rules; and can be used as an alternative method to the intricated statistical methods in profiling longevity risk exposure.
