Financial Knowledge Education and Training System for Agents Selling Investment-Linked InsuranceLee, I-chen 23 October 2009 (has links)
Investment-Linked Insurance was introduced to the Taiwan market in 2001. It has since influenced the way insurance sales agents sell the products. Because of the level of complication of Investment-Linked Insurance compared with traditional insurance, and professional knowledge and skills needed during the selling process, an insurance sales agent needs to improve his competence in order to become a financial advisor for his customers.
However, literature review shows that most researchers focus on how to improve customer satisfaction, service quality, customer loyalty or the impact of training on sales. There are so few studies related to the development of a training system specifically designed for selling Investment-Linked Insurance.
According to the results from surveys, almost sixty percent of sales agents consider the ability of gathering and analyzing information or the understanding of political or economical status the skills they need the most. Moreover, almost fifty percent of sales agents believe the investment performance in the past does not affect the decision of customers for the purchases of Investment-Linked Insurance. At the same time, seventy percent of sales agents admit that customers tend to stay off Investment-Linked Insurance because of risk.
Not only do surveys show that sales agents need more skills, but also interviews indicate that sales agents are afraid that they can not improve their competence without a systematic training.
Therefore, we classify the knowledge and skills needed during the sale process for Investment-Linked Insurance. After the basic training sessions, sales agents will take five training modules, including data collection, interpretation of political or economical status, investment portfolio allocation, investment performance review and funds analysis. At the same time, sales agents follow the training steps of identification, learning, practices and articulation in order to get ready for Investment-Linked Insurance.
The benefits of this training system for Investment-Linked Insurance are two-folds, including the increase of time and cost efficiency for training and the enhancement of professional knowledge or skills.

Mutual fund portfolio optimization for investment-linked insuranceChen, Hsin-jung 27 July 2009 (has links)
Investment-linked insurance in Taiwan has been listed for almost a decade since 2001.
In 2002, after the big sales of the investment-linked insurance, the domestic insurance
companies also joined the market. For the investment-linked insurance, the policyholders
retain the protection of the life insurance as well as share the earnings of the investment.
Since the main investment instruments of the investment-linked insurance are mutual funds,
it is important to study how to optimally allocate the portfolio. This research consider the
returns of the mutual funds under tree models assumption. The objective is to find the
optimal portfolio which has minimum variance and attained a given expected return level.
The problem is also known as mean-variance portfolio problem.
In the empirical work, we study eleven daily mutual fund price data from Sep. 2007
to Nov. 2008. Using the data of the first 12 months, we first establish initial tree price
models, then update the parameters of the tree model by the EWMAmethod. The optimal
trading strategies of the mean-variance portfolio are investigated under this model setting.
We class the mutual funds into three categories: equity funds, balanced funds and bond
funds. Different combination of these three kinds of funds are considered to find the
optimal trading strategy respectively. The results showed that the realized returns using
this optimal trading strategy in practice is close to the pre-specified expected return level.

台灣壽險公司經營投資型保險之研究陳聖儀 Unknown Date (has links)
這些年來,經濟環境持續惡化,市場利率不斷下滑,壽險公司面臨利差損的巨額損失,然而相關修正法規通過投資型商品的銷售,因此壽險公司積極開發投資型商品,運用此商品來對抗利率下跌所產生的風險,同時提供消費者「保險」與「投資」雙重功能的新商品。
本文根據當前金融環境及壽險業所面臨的問題,來探討壽險公司對投資型商品的經營策略,並實際訪談己推出投資型商品外商、本土具代表性的壽險公司,最後依據研究結果做出結論及建議。
本研究得到的結論歸納如下:(1)壽險公司銷售投資型商品,朝改善商品結構,有效防範和化解經營風險,提升核心競爭力,亦是建立長期競爭優勢。(2)經營投資型保險經管風險的評估,其最大費用是教育訓練及軟体系統的投資與維護,即作業風險是最大考量。(3)外商保險公司發展投資型保險商品速度快於本土保險公司,對市場反應力較強。而本土保險公司,要落實教育訓練較為費時,因此本土公司都從簡單易懂商品開始,漸進式轉入投資型保險。(4)外商公司的競爭優勢是商品設計,行政作業靈活及電腦系統優異,而本土公司的核心競爭力則是行銷通路及眾多業務員,因此由簡易套裝商品切入市場建立客戶群。(5)保險公司業務員仍為主要行銷通路,而「全方位理財顧問」將是業務人員的定位,因此教育訓練及選才是壽險公司進入投資型保險的重要課題。(6)對行銷人員來說,以往「人情保」或「退傭金」的銷售模式己不適用,而是要規劃客戶需求的責任風險,及提供相關金融知識,成為客戶個人及家庭的理財顧問。(7)金融自由化及金控法規通過,壽險公司必需整合資源形成經濟規模,對於投資型商品的投資靈活性、商品成本透明度與投資種類的組合等方面將是壽險業之間競爭模式的轉變。(8)投資型商品具有保障和投資雙重功能,但需將投資型保險當作保險商品來運用而非投資工具,並且要「長期持有」才能顯現基金績效;而業務人員誠實揭露相關費用及明確告之消費者權益和義務是避免銷售糾紛的最重要關鍵。

海峽兩岸投資型保險商品之比較研究王超馨 Unknown Date (has links)
近年來海峽兩岸利率持續走低,已經對壽險公司之財務產生負面影響,故銷售固定利率保險商品之壽險業者,其資金運用報酬與業務成本間之利差損現象日益擴增,為避免財務負擔日增而影響其清償能力,市場趨勢乃轉向能將風險大部分轉移給保單持有人並讓其分享大部分投資利得之投資型保險商品。本文就海峽兩岸投資型保險商品,從法規架構、監理體系、商品種類內容、市場行銷等方面加以詳細比較分析,並以1988-1994年英國銷售投資型保險商品所發生之退休金不當銷售弊案(mis-selling scandal)為借鏡,進而歸納出所面臨之各種問題,再針對此等問題提出可能解決之道,作為兩岸發展投資型保險之參考。

To avoid the companies from insolvency crisis arising out of the increasing financial burden, there is a trend, recently in both Taiwan and Mainland markets, that the insurance business focus has been averted from the traditional products toward investment-linked products that transfer most risk to policyholders and enable them to share in most investment gains.
This paper compares the investment-linked insurance between Taiwan and Mainland markets in the viewpoints of the legal structure, regulation systems, variety of products and marketing of investment -linked products. This paper also analyses the famous U.K. mis-selling scandal in 1988-1994, and tries to make this scandal into a valuable lesson to both markets. After listing the issues and problems which are encountered by the insurance companies, the suggestions for resolving such issues and problems are submitted as the conclusion of this paper.
