Abstract

An increasingly aging society is a major challenge for both insurers and global pension systems, as well as for individuals themselves who may face the risk of outliving their savings. New products are needed in order to address this issue, as current life products are facing many problems to counteract the effect of longevity. In this article, we rescue tontines, a form of life insurance that became popular more than three centuries ago, that was outlawed and we present them today as an alternative to this scenario of increasing of the global longevity.
