本研究中以隨機模擬的方法應用於退休金最佳控制理論中，並將下跌風險(Downside Risks)加入二次最佳化函數中作為最適化準則，再以英國與美加地區不同提撥率模型做為研究對象，觀察不同情境下之結果。Haberman(1994)首先提出以最適化方法應用於固定給付制退休金基金上，並具體建立二次最適化準則，以提撥與資產的變異作為控制因子。Chang(2003)以下跌風險的觀念，指出退休金基金經營時管理人常較注意提撥過多與資產不足風險，若經營時考慮下跌風險，則會產生與原來考量不同之結果。本文以Chang(2003)之研究為基礎，將其建議之最佳化函數做為考量下跌風險之依據，並提出改良英國與美加地區之提撥率模型，採模擬的方式進行最佳化，探討其對不同提撥率模型之影響。研究結果發現若以隨機模擬作為最佳控制方法，在不同人口假設及精算模型下，會產生相同之結果，且發現下跌風險對於不同提撥率模型有不同之影響，其中建議的英式模型有效降低風險，而美式提撥率模型對於提撥率比例與資產負債比例在最佳化下有較理想之結果。最重要的，退休金基金管理人可利用隨機模擬的方式進行最佳化控制，以提供決策之參考依據。

本研究以確定給付型退休基金為對象，建構廣義隨機評價模型，以衡量不確定情況下退休基金之財務風險。希望藉著模型建構的過程，適切地描述基金評價過程中所應考量的各項要素。 為了強調基金評價時同時考量內外部精算假設的重要性，本研究將模型分為存活函數、經濟函數和給付函數三部份討論；存活函數利用離散時間非同質性半馬可夫過程（Discrete Time Non-Homogeneous semi-Markov Process）描述成員狀態轉移的機率，把成員工作年資、年齡和及狀態納入評價過程，有別於傳統僅以年齡為假設基礎之精算方法；經濟函數則以隨機過程表達外部環境的不確定性，結合上述假設資訊預估未來給付後，成為半馬可夫隨機精算評價模型，此一般性的模型能推展至基金評價時所需的各項流程。因此，本研究將模型應用於我國公務人員退撫基金，針對公務人員退撫基金的給付特性發展財務評價公式，完整地描述基金精算成本計算、未來人力與現金流量結構模擬以及敏感度分析等過程。 最後，本研究撰寫公務人員精算評價資訊系統，具體化半馬可夫隨機精算評價模型，實證公務人員退撫基金財務評價公式。實證結果也顯示，不論基金的性質或外部經濟環境，都將影響退休基金財務評價結果，為基金評價時不可忽略的精算假設。 / This study focuses on constructing a generalized valuation model for the defined benefit pension schemes. Financial soundness and funding stability are critical issues in pension fund management. In this study, a realistic stochastic model is built to monitor the uncertainty factors in affecting the financial risk and cash flow dynamics along the decision process. In order to evaluate the importance of the interior and exterior actuarial assumptions in pension valuation. Detailed models in describing the turnover patterns, economic uncertainties and benefit structures are explored. Semi-Markov process proposed by Dominicis, Manca and Granata (1991) and Janssen and Manca (1997) is extended in structuring the transition pattern of the plan’s population and the economic based factors are generated through stochastic processes. Modifications according to classification and movements of the plan member and the plan’s turnover pattern are employed to improve its practical usefulness. Then the actuarial valuations, cash flow analyses and workforce projection are performed and investigated. We has explicitly formulated the plan’s realistic phenomenon and implemented the proposed mechanism into a risk management framework for pension finance. By using this realistic approach, the cost factors could be monitored throughout the valuation. Typically these analyses involve substantial assumptions. This article has outlined the procedure of building the proposed model. Finally, Taiwan Public Employees Retirement System is simplified to illustrate the proposed methodology in pension valuation. The results from this study show that the structure of the pension schemes and the assumed economic factors are the significant factors in pension valuation. It also indicated that the fund manager can evaluate these impacts through the proposed model.
