How Long Will We Live (2006, unknown): “White (2002) shows that trends in recent decades have been nearly linear for both sexes combined, but these trends will likely not continue because the contributions from declines in juvenile and background mortality cannot be repeated.”
Pricing Standardized Mortality Securitizations: A Two‐Population Model with Transitory Jump Effects (2013, unknown): “, Wilson, 2001; White, 2002). According to Cairns, Blake, Dowd, Coughlan, and Khalaf-Allah (2011), the necessary conditions for nondivergence are: 1.”
Coherent mortality forecasts for a group of populations: An extension of the lee-carter method (2005, background): “This trend has been documented in developed countries as well (White 2002).”
Inequality in Life Spans and a New Perspective on Mortality Convergence Across Industrialized Countries (2005, background): “16Since the Second World War, distributions of ages at death have shifted additively, as partially evidenced by linear increases in e0 White (2002); Oeppen and Vaupel (2002).”
Measuring Basis Risk in Longevity Hedges (2011, background): “This phenomenon can be seen in Figure 7, in which we graph the life expectancy for various countries, and is documented in White (2002), Wilson (2001), and United Nations (1998).”
Mortality Modelling and Forecasting: a Review of Methods (2008, background): “As White (2002) has shown, historical trends suggest that such a method can be expected to be accurate.”
Smoothing and projecting age-specific probabilities of death by TOPALS (2012, unknown): “There is ample empirical evidence that there has been a converging tendency in mortality declines during the last decades (Wilson, 2001; White, 2002; Janssen et al., 2004; Bongaarts, 2006; Lanzieri, 2009).”
