Abstract:
Les tontines passent fréquemment pour une forme financière résiduelle et vouée à la disparition. Notre enquête nous prouve, au contraire, qu’à Niamey une large fraction de la population adhère aux tontines et ceci en particulier parmi les adultes jeunes et actifs. De plus, les participants aux tontines sont des individus aux revenus plus élevés et aux sources de revenus plus modernes que les autres ; généralement, ils ont accès au monde financier formel, mais ne négligent pas pour autant les modalités financières plus traditionnelles.

AbstractWe derive optimal portfolio choice patterns in retirement (ages 66–105) for a constant relative risk aversion utility maximising investor facing risky capital market returns, stochastic mortality risk, and income-reducing health shocks. Beyond the usual stocks and bonds, the individual can invest his assets in tontines. Tontines are cost-efficient financial contracts providing age-increasing, but volatile cash flows, generated through the pooling of mortality without guarantees, which can help to match increasing financing needs at old ages. We find that a tontine invested in the risk-

Abstract:
Tontines were used more extensively by France than Britain. Comparative tontine history illuminates the differing evolution of public finance in the two countries and its political consequences. Archival materials establish the number of participants in French tontines. Internal rates of return on tontines and alternatives show subsidy of tontines by the French government. Repudiation in 1770 contributed to the political attitudes of life annuitants, the most important class of state creditors, during the fiscal crisis of the late 1780s.

Abstract:
Due to the low demand for conventional annuities, alternative retirement products are sought. Quite recently, tontines have been frequently brought up as a promising option in this respect. Inspired by unit-linked life insurance and retirement products, we introduce unit-linked tontines in this article, where the tontine payoffs are directly linked to the development of the underlying financial market. More specifically, we consider two different tontine payoff structures differing in the (non-)inclusion of guaranteed payments. We first price the unit-linked tontines by using the risk-neutral

Abstract:
AbstractTontines, retirement products constructed in such a way that the longevity risk is shared in a pool of policyholders, have recently gained vast attention from researchers and practitioners. Typically, these products are cheaper than annuities, but do not provide stable payments to policyholders. This raises the question whether, from the policyholders' viewpoint, the advantages of annuities and tontines can be combined to form a retirement plan which is cheaper than an annuity, but provides a less volatile retirement income than a tontine. In this article, we analyze and compare three

Abstract:
Tontines and life annuities both insure against longevity risk by guaranteeing (pension) income for life. The optimal choice between these two mortality-contingent claims depends on personal preferences for consumption and risk. And, while pure tontines are unavailable in the twenty-first century, the first longevity-contingent claim (and debt) issued by the English government in the late seventeenth century offered a choice between the two. This article analyzes financial and economic aspects of King William's 1693 tontine that have not received attention in the literature. In particular, it

Abstract:
Scotland, unlike England and Ireland, was never the site of a state-operated tontine. Despite this, the scheme developed independently of the state, becoming popular with private groups as a means of raising funds for building works. Part life annuity and part lottery, this financial instrument was used to provide capital for a range of projects in Scotland, including hotels, coffeehouses, and assembly rooms. This article identifies successful and unsuccessful Scottish tontines between 1775 and 1850. It hypothesises that local private tontines were most successful when they operated a proto-En

Abstract:
In recent years, the Ivorian school system has been confronted with a troubling phenomenon that tarnishes the image of the educational system: the sexual tontine. This unhealthy and socially deviant practice has emerged among students, gaining momentum and gradually eroding moral values within schools. The sexual tontine is characterized by an organized behavior among groups of adolescents who regularly pool funds, estimated at around 2,000 FCFA per day per individual, into a common fund. In turn, each group member uses the collected money to pay for sexual relations with girls, typically in a
