Research summary
AI-generated

Mengyi Xu's research focuses on insurance and retirement finance, particularly how to model and manage risks related to aging, disability, and long-term care needs. Work includes statistical modeling of health transitions and mortality trends, and designing insurance products (like annuities and longevity bonds) that help individuals manage the financial risks of living longer or needing long-term care. Much of this research draws on demographic and health data to inform actuarial pricing and policy design.
