金融機構之降息政策與全球經濟環境之不確定性，大幅增加人壽保險人之經營風險，以鄰國日本人壽保險為例，自1996年日產生命發生財務危機開始，已有5家保險公司宣佈倒閉或破產，6家進行合併，其餘14家也面臨嚴重之財務壓力，為避免系統風險造成台灣人壽保險產業之破產危機，如何創新保險商品及研擬風險管理成為重要之議題。 　　人壽保險公司之負債資產比極高，因此公司之財務健全與投保人之權益息息相關，利率變動將顯著影響公司獲利能力，因此利率風險管理實為當務之急。投資型商品之開發為人壽保險產業因應利率風險之新興策略，早期為人壽保險與共同基金結合，或與銀行定存結合，近來發展出與指數型金融商品連結之保本型人壽保險。因為商品之複雜度，評價將成為重要之課題，投資型保險基於被保險人參與財務風險程度之大小差異，風險管理與傳統型保險有所差別。 　　本研究首先探討目前人壽保險市場之現況，詳細定義投資型人壽保險，探討發展過程，並實際進行試算與評價分析，列舉說明精算之規範，資產負債管理、風險資本額制度下之定位及外匯等問題，以個案討論台灣及中國大陸市場之投資型商品，並提出現況之建議。 / Due to the monetary policy in the banking sector and the global economic uncertainty, the solvency issue for the life insurer becomes crucial. In Japan life insurance market, five insurers have declared their bankruptcy since 1996, six insurers had been merged, and the others have suffered serious financial press. Preventing the ruin crisis of life insurers and strengthen their financial abilities through innovation products and risk management techniques in Taiwan have become an important issue for the management. 　　Owing to the high leverage ratio in life insurer's capital structure, the reserve adequacy plays a vital role in shielding the policyholder's rights. Since the uncertainty of the interest rate affects the reserve and surplus of the insurer, asset-liability risk management becomes an important subject. Adding the investment-linked life insurance policies in the insurer's liability portfolio is an innovative strategy in managing the low interest risk. Combining with the mutual fund or the bank certificates in early stage has advanced to integrate with the equity indexed products. The investment-linked products vary from the traditional ones allowing the participation in the financial risks. Owing to the complexity of its design, the valuation becomes essential. 　　This study analyzes investment-linked life insurance policies and their historical evolutions. The financial valuation processes are illustrated explicitly. The regulations in the reserve valuation, the asset-liability management, the connection with risk-based capital (RBC) and the related hedging issues are also explored. Finally, the product designs and managerial issues in operating the investment-linked life insurance policies in Taiwan and Mainland China are discussed.
