Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An annuity mortality table typically projects that people live longer than a life insurance mortality table because it is used to calculate the payouts for annuities, where the financial risk to the insurer increases with the longevity of the annuitant. In contrast, life insurance mortality tables are used to calculate the risk of death within a certain period, where the insurer's risk decreases as the insured lives longer.
