3 Insurance Claims Two types of predictive models for insurance claims Frequency severity model: Two-stage framework Pure premium: Both belong to GLM and straightforward to implement More details in Predictive s in Actuarial Science, edited by Frees, Derrig, and Meyers 3 / 18
4 Multilevel Structure We often assume individual risks are independent which is not always the case We examine a specific case where dependence among risks is often introduced through the multilevel structure Many examples in property-casualty insurance Automobile insurance: household/fleet, multiple coverage Homeowner: neighborhood, multi-peril coverage Health: individual/group Worker s compensation. One can argue that dependence among risks is important for claim management Our goal is to incorporate the correlation into the claims modeling framework 4 / 18
5 Automobile Insurance Personal automobile insurance in Canada Four types of coverage Accident benefit - no-fault insurance benefit to the injured insured Collision - damage to the policyholder s vehicle due to collision All risk - damage to the policyholder s vehicle due to risks other than collision Civil liability - bodily injury and property damage of third party We examine a longitudinal dataset for years Each policy could cover multiple vehicles Table : Distribution of number of vehicles per policy Total Number Percentage / 18
6 Claim Costs 6 / 18
7 Predictors The data set contains basic rating variables policyholder characteristics, driving history, vehicle characteristics use binary predictors in the analysis Table : Summary of rating variables Variable Description Mean young =1 if age between 16 and seinor =1 if age more than marital =1 if married homeowner =1 if homeowner experience =1 if more than ten years of experience conviction =1 if positive number of convictions newcar =1 if new car leasecar =1 if lease car business =1 if business use highmilage =1 if drive more than 10,000 miles multidriver =1 if more than two drivers / 18
8 A Poisson sum of gamma random variables Y = (X X N )/ω N Poisson(ωλ) Y j (j = 1,,N) gamma(α,γ) The belongs to the exponential familiy with the reparameterizations: λ = µ2 p φ(2 p), α = 2 p p 1, The density function is shown as [ ( ω f (y) = exp φ y µ2 p (p 1)µ p 1 2 p γ = φ(p 1)µp 1 ) ] + S(y;φ/ω) with E(Y) = µ and Var(Y) = φ ω µp Dispersion modeling? Tweed GLM: g µ (µ) = x β Dispersion model: g φ (φ) = z η 8 / 18
9 Bivariate 9 / 18 A copula is a multivariate distribution function with uniform marginals. Let U 1,...,U J be J uniform random variables on (0,1). Their distribution function H(u 1,...,u J ) = Pr(U 1 u 1,...,U J u J ) Consider two tweedie marginals Y 1 and Y 2 with cdf F 1 and F 2. Define the joint distribution using the copula H such that F(y 1,y 2 ) = H(F 1 (y 1 ),F 2 (y 2 )) Use Gaussian copula H(u1,u2) = Φ ρ (Φ 1 (u 1 ),Φ 2 (u 2 )) H(F 1 (0),F 2 (0)) if y 1 = 0 and y 2 = 0 f f (y 1,y 2 ) = 1 (y 1 )h 1 (F 1 (y 1 ),F 2 (0)) if y 1 > 0 and y 2 = 0 f 2 (y 2 )h 2 (F 1 (0),F 2 (y 2 )) if y 1 = 0 and y 2 > 0 f 1 (y 1 )f 2 (y 2 )h(f 1 (y 1 ),F 2 (y 2 ) if y 1 > 0 and y 2 > 0 Here h(u 1,u 2 ) = H(u 1,u 2 )/ u 1 u 2 h j (u 1,u 2 ) = H(u 1,u 2 )/ u j for j = 1,2 They have close-form expressions for Gaussian copula
10 Let Y ikjt denote the insurance cost for Household (Cluster) i (= 1,,M) Vehicle k (= 1,,K i ) Coverage type j (= 1,,J i ) Period t (= 1,,T i ) For example K 2 = 2, J i = 3, T i = 4, let Y i = (Y i111,,y i114,y i121,,y i124,,y i231,,y i234 ) Each marginal follows distribution Using Gaussian copula to build the joint distribution F i (y i ) = H(F(y i111 ),,F(Y i114 ),F(Y i121 ),,F(Y i124 ),,F(Y i231 ),,F(Y i234 )) Need to specify the association matrix R in the gaussian copula 10 / 18
11 Define R = B P where ( 1 δ B = δ 1 ) and P = P 11 σ 12 P 12 σ 13 P 13 σ 21 P 21 P 22 σ 23 P 23 σ 31 P 31 σ 32 P 32 P 33 Further 1 ρ j ρ 2 τ jj 1 ρj 2 1 ρ 2 j ρ3 j j σ jj = and P AR 1 ρ j ρ j jj = ρ j 1 ρ j ρ 2 j ρj 2 ρ j 1 ρ j ρj 3 ρj 2 ρ j 1 Summarize dependence parameters Between vehicles δ Between coverage types τ 12, τ 13, τ 23 Temporal ρ 1, ρ 2, ρ 3 11 / 18
