This paper will first explore the effect of interest rate changes on the stock returns of Taiwan-listed life insurance companies. Then, we will examine the sensitivity of Taiwanese life insurance companies to interest rates by assuming and explicitly testing a two-factor model. Surprisingly, we found that stock return of the life insurance companies are not significantly affected by the interest rate movement. We will investigate and analyze the reasons why the result is inconsistent with our knowledge. One reason might be due to lack of timely financial reports. We observed that embedded value might be a better financial indicator used to evaluate the interest rate impact on life insurance company financial soundness. / This paper will first explore the effect of interest rate changes on the stock returns of Taiwan-listed life insurance companies.
