Definition of mortality factor
Definition: Mortality factor is an estimate of the average number of deaths that will occur each year at each specific age, calculated by using an actuarial table. It is used in life-insurance ratemaking to calculate premium rates.
For example, if the mortality factor for a 30-year-old male is 0.05, it means that on average, 5 out of 100 people of that age and gender will die in a year. This factor is one of the elements that a life insurer uses to determine the premium rate for a policy.
The mortality factor is based on statistical data and helps insurers to assess the risk of insuring a person's life. The higher the mortality factor, the higher the risk, and the higher the premium rate.
If we desire respect for the law, we must first make the law respectable.
