The research is done at Hewitt Associates, Amsterdam. At Hewitt I investigated the consequences of longevity risk. Using the well known model of Lee-Carter, a prognosis of future life-expectancy in the Netherlands is constructed. Then the financial consequences for Dutch pension funds are examined, in particular when its participants become older as expected.
