On modelling select mortality

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  20 April 2012

Abstract

In this paper we present an approach to the graduation of select mortality data and we illustrate this approach by graduating the CMIB's data for Female Permanent Assurances 1979–1982. The difference between our approach and that of the CMIB is that we graduate simultaneously by attained age and duration since selection.
