A semi‐Lagrangian ε$$ \varepsilon $$‐monotone Fourier method for continuous withdrawal GMWBs under jump‐diffusion with stochastic interest rate
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract We develop an efficient pricing approach for guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (GMWBs) with continuous withdrawals under a realistic modeling setting with jump‐diffusions and stochastic interest rate. Utilizing an impulse stochastic control framework, we formulate the no‐arbitrage GMWB pricing problem as a time‐dependent Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Bellman (HJB) Quasi‐Variational Inequality (QVI) having three spatial dimensions with cross derivative terms. Through a novel numerical approach built upon a combination of a semi‐Lagrangian method and the Green's function of an associated linear partial integro‐differential equation, we develop an ‐monotone Fourier pricing method, where is a monotonicity tolerance. Together with a provable strong comparison result for the HJB‐QVI, we mathematically demonstrate convergence of the proposed scheme to the viscosity solution of the HJB‐QVI as . We present a comprehensive study of the impact of simultaneously considering jumps in the subaccount process and stochastic interest rate on the no‐arbitrage prices and fair insurance fees of GMWBs, as well as on the holder's optimal withdrawal behaviors.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
