The capital requirement under Solvency II is determined as the 99.5% value-at-risk of the available capital. In the standard model's longevity risk module, this value-at-risk is approximated by the change in net asset value due to a pre-specified longevity shock which assumes a 25% reduction of mortality rates for all ages.The adequacy of this shock is analyzed by comparing the resulting capital requirement to the value-at-risk based on a stochastic mortality model. The results of this comparison are presented and a modified model for computing the longevity risk is proposed. Finally, there is a brief analysis of the risk margin and cost of capital concept under Solvency II concerning the longevity risk, and also a useful insight of the longevity risk derivative market is provided.
