4. Research Limitations
This study suffers from several limitations. First of all, the Geometric Brownian motion
fails to capture the well-documented phenomenon of volatility clustering in housing prices.
Secondly, the assumption of constant interest rate does not consider the effect of interest rate
term structure. Third, factors other than mortality rate may cause loans to become due and
payable. All of these issues could be considered in future studies.
5. Contribution
To achieve profits and effectively manage risks, it is important that financial institutions
understand the structures of their products. This study provides a specific process by which
lenders can specifically assess profit and recognize potential risks. Furthermore, the
proposed approach enables borrowers entering into reverse mortgages to realize the detailed
conversion values of their properties.
