  1. ISO Study of Industry Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves Spring 2003 CAS Meeting John Kollar, ISO

  2. Loss Reserve Analysis • Experience of more than 900 insurer groups for year ended 12/31/01 • Schedule P data as compiled by A. M. Best • Covers more than 95% of the reported loss and loss adjustment expense reserves (LLAE) for studied lines

  3. PP Auto Liability HO/Farmowners Com. Auto Liability GL & Products Claims-Made GL Occurrence Com. Multi-Peril Med Mal Occurrence Med Mal Claims-Made Products Occurrence Reinsurance (Non-Proportional Liability) Workers Comp Lines studied

  4. Loss Reserve Analysis • Excludes reserves for environmental and asbestos (E&A) claims • Treats reserve discounts as deficiencies relative to indicated full-value reserves • Special treatment of losses related to 9/11/01 terrorist attack

  5. Conventions • Each deficiency/redundancy expressed as percentageof indicated undiscounted reserve • Positive percentages indicate deficiencies • Negative percentages indicate redundancies

  6. Summary Indications Paid LinkCase Incurred • Lines Studied +17.6% +15.6% • All Other Lines +14.8% +14.8% • Total – all lines +17.3% +15.5% • Industry reserves deficient by $63B to $72B • (excl. E & A )

  7. Perspective • Reserve adequacy weakened in 2001: • Reserves 2 to 3 percentage points less adequate at year-end 2001 than at year-end 2000 • Reserve adequacy has deteriorated for 8 consecutive years

  8. Subsequent Developments • More than $3B in additional deterioration in 2002 • Adding in estimates for E&A Reserves suggests total deficiency exceeds $100B • Recent well-publicized reserve strengthenings for E&A

  9. Methodologies • Paid link-ratio technique • Case-incurred link-ratio technique

  10. Methodologies • Paid Link Ratio Technique Advantages • Development up to 10 years based on actual paid LALAE(no estimates) • Not influenced by changes in LALAE reserves Drawbacks • Slow to pick up changes in payout patterns • Sensitive to fluctuations in latest paid LALAE • Ignores additional info used in setting case reserves

  11. Methodologies • Case-Incurred Link Ratio Technique Advantages • Uses case-reserve information • Through 10 years, does not use reported IBNR reserves Drawbacks • Sensitive to fluctuations in latest case-incurred LALAE • Changes in adequacy of case reserves may affect development patterns

  12. Factors affectinganalysis • Data • Development factors • Tail factors • Professional judgment

  13. Ranges of indicationsWorkers Comp Example • Indicated deficiencies • Paid 13.7% to 27.9% • Selected 24.8% • Case-Incurred 20.8% to 33.0% • Selected 27.0% • Choice of technique, tail factors, etc. yields much wider range than selections made

  14. Composite Estimates • P/C industry reported LLAE reserves were 12% to 21% deficient at YE ’01 for lines • Deficiency translates to $48B to $92B • Deficiency includes $14B in discounts • Deficiency related to industry surplus before taxes: 17% to 32%

  15. Composite Estimates • Most adequate lines: • PP Auto Liability -6% to +4% • Home/Farm/owners -2% to +8% • GL & Products Claims-Made -3% to +7%

  16. Composite Estimates • Lines with substantive deficiencies: • Com. Auto Liability +10% to +20% • GL Occurrence +13% to +28% • Products Occurrence +18% to +33% • Com. Multi-Peril +15% to +25% • Workers Comp +20% to +35% • Med Mal Occurrence +10% to +25% • Med Mal Claims-Made 0% to +15% • Reinsurance (Non-Prop) +20% to +40%

  17. LALAE Ratios – Accident Year vs. Calendar Year LALAE Ratios – Accident Year vs. Calendar Year

  18. Loss Reserve Changes vs. Industry Profitability, All Lines

  19. Insurer Return on Net Worth (RONW) Insurer Return on Net Worth (RONW)

  20. Adjustment for 9/11 Losses Reserves include unpaid losses arising from September 11, 2001 terrorist attack • Lines sustaining significant losses: Com. Property, Com. Multi-Peril, Workers Compensation, General Liability, Aviation, and Reinsurance – Non-Proportional Liability Assumed

  21. Adjustment for 9/11 Losses • Inappropriate to use traditional development factors • ISO removed net LALAE due to attack from accident year 2001 LLAE by line • Developed remaining losses traditionally • Estimated overall AY 2001 losses by combining ultimate losses from attack estimate with other losses at ultimate • Calculated overall reserve deficiencies

  22. Perspective on 9/11 • Insurer results deteriorated • Reserve strengthening • Less than $9B carried but more than $11B indicated in terrorist loss reserves • Where are the losses – US, Overseas? • Litigation – 1 or 2 events? • Rating downgrades

  23. Individual Insurer Analysis • Aggregate loss distributions for 19 insurers • Unpaid losses for accident years prior to current one • All p/c lines • Compared range of ultimate losses to expected • Insurer differences by size/type of business

  24. ISO Loss Reserve Analysis • Results by line of insurance, as well as methodology and selections for each line, available in Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves at Year-End 2001: Technical Analysis (April 2003) • Details on loss adjustment expenses in: Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves at Year-End 2001: ALAE Supplement (April 2003)
