English term

Embedded Value

English to Chinese Bus/Financial Insurance Life Insurance
Embedded Value is the present value of future profits arising from all in-force policies(有效契约).

I have seen many different chinese translations of the term "Embedded Value", and hence wonder if anyone knows of a more commonly used term?

The term that I think most appropriately describe this is 内定价值. Although not 100% correct, but the value is internally determined using firm specific assumptions.

Does anyone know of a better or more commonly used term for "Embedded Value"?

Thanks in advance!

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Good reference, although it still doesn't show which of the terms is most widely accepted, given many variations have been employed in translation. This term is a Western invention originating from Europe, a standard terminology for chinese may / may not have been established. As a practitioner turned translator, I feel "内含价值" is probably the most intuitive for a practitioner -- This is not necessarily an authoritative statment for translation. Thanks a lot for everyone's contribution."
