1 Bootstrapping the triangles Prečo, kedy a ako (NE)bootstrapovat v trojuholníkoch? Michal Pešta Charles University in Prague Faculty of Mathematics and Physics Actuarial Seminar, Prague 19 October 01
2 Overview - Idea and goal of bootstrapping - Bootstrap in reserving triangles - Residuals - Diagnostics - Real data example Support: Czech Science Foundation project DYME Dynamic Models in Economics No. P40/1/G097
3 Prologue for Bootstrap - computationally intensive method popularized in 1980s due to the introduction of computers in statistical practice - a strong mathematical background bootstrap does not replace or add to the original data - unfortunately, the name bootstrap conveys the impression of something for nothing idly resampling from their samples
4 Reserving Issue - consider traditional actuarial approach to reserving risk... the uncertainty in the outcomes over the lifetime of the liabilities - bootstrap can be also applied under Solvency II... outstanding liabilities after 1 year - distribution-free methods (e.g., chain ladder) only provide a standard deviation of the ultimates/reserves (or claims development result/run-off result)? another risk measure (e.g., V 99.5%) moreover, distributions of ultimate cost of claims and the associated cash flows (not just a standard deviation)?! claims reserving technique applied mechanically and without judgement
5 Bootstrap - simple (distribution-independent) resampling method - estimate properties (distribution) of an estimator by sampling from an approximating (e.g., empirical) distribution - useful when the theoretical distribution of a statistic of interest is complicated or unknown
6 Resampling with replacement - random sampling with replacement from the original dataset for b = 1,..., B resample from X 1,..., X n with replacement and obtain X 1,b,..., X n,b
7 Bootstrap example - input data (# of catastrophic claims per year in 10y history): 35, 34, 13, 33, 7, 30, 19, 31, 10, 33 mean = 6.5, sd = Case sampling. bootstrap sample 1 (1st draw with replacement): 30, 7, 35, 35, 13, 35, 33, 34, 35, 33 mean 1 = 31.0, sd 1 = bootstrap sample 1000 (1000th draw with replacement): 19, 19, 31, 19, 33, 34, 31, 34, 34, 10 mean 1000 = 6.4, sd 1000 = mean 1,..., mean 1000 provide bootstrap empirical distribution for mean and sd 1,..., sd 1000 provide bootstrap empirical distribution for sd (REALLY!?)
8 Terminology - X i,j... claim amounts in development year j with accident year i - X i,j stands for the incremental claims in accident year i made in accounting year i + j - n... current year corresponds to the most recent accident year and development period - Our data history consists of right-angled isosceles triangles X i,j, where i = 1,..., n and j = 1,..., n + 1 i
9 Run-off (incremental) triangle Accident Development year j year i 1 n 1 n 1 X 1,1 X 1, X 1,n 1 X 1,n X,1 X, X,n X i,n+1 i n 1 X n 1,1 X n 1, n X n,1
10 Notation - C i,j... cumulative payments in origin year i after j development periods C i,j = j k=1 X i,k - C i,j... a random variable of which we have an observation if i + j n Aim is to estimate the ultimate claims amount C i,n and the outstanding claims reserve R i = C i,n C i,n+1 i, i =,..., n by completing the triangle into a square
11 Run-off (cumulative) triangle Accident Development year j year i 1 n 1 n 1 C 1,1 C 1, C 1,n 1 C 1,n C,1 C, C,n C i,n+1 i n 1 C n 1,1 C n 1, n C n,1
12 Theory behind the bootstrap - validity of bootstrap procedure - asymptotically distributionally coincide R i R i {Xi,j : i + j n + 1} and Ri R i - approaching (each other) in distribution in probability along D (n) n = {X i,j : i + j n + 1} R i R i D (n) n D R i R i in probability, n real-valued bounded continuous function f [ ( E f R i R ) ] [ ( )] D (n) P i n E f Ri R i 0 n
13 Residuals - measure the discrepancy of fit in a model - can be used to explore the adequacy of fit of a model - may also indicate the presence of anomalous values requiring further investigation - in regression type problems, it is common to bootstrap the residuals, rather than bootstrap the data themselves - should mimic iid r.v. having zero mean, common variance, symmetric distribution
14 Raw residuals (R)r i,j = X i,j X i,j or (R) r i,j = C i,j Ĉi,j - in homoscedastic linear regression, CL with α = 0, GLM with normal distribution and identity link
15 Pearson residuals (P )r i,j = X i,j X i,j V ( X i,j ) - in GLM or GEE - idea is to standardize raw residuals - ODP: (P )r i,j = X i,j X i,j Xi,j - Gamma GLM: (P )r i,j = X i,j X i,j X i,j
16 Anscombe residuals I - in GLM or GEE (A)r i,j = A(X i,j) A( X i,j ) A ( X i,j ) V ( X i,j ) - disadvantage of Pearson residuals: often markedly skewed - idea is to obtain residuals, which are not skewed (to "normalize" residuals)
17 Anscombe residuals II - ODP: - Gamma GLM: - inverse Gaussian: A( ) = (A)r i,j = 3 dµ V 1/3 (µ) X /3 i,j (A)r i,j = 3 X1/3 X 1/6 i,j X /3 i,j 1/3 i,j X i,j X 1/3 i,j (A)r i,j = log X i,j log X i,j X 1/ i,j
18 Deviance residuals (D)r i,j = sign(x i,j X i,j ) d i, where d i is the deviance for one unit, i.e., d i = D - in GLM or GEE - similar advantageous properties like Anscombe residuals (see Taylor expansion) - ODP: (D)r i,j = sign(x i,j X i,j ) (X i,j log(x i,j / X i,j ) X i,j + X ) i,j
19 Scaled residuals - scaling parameter φ (sc) r i,j = r i,j φ - to obtain the bootstrap prediction error, it is necessary to add an estimate of the process variance... bias correction in the bootstrap estimation variance - Pearson scaled residuals in ODP for the bootstrap prediction error: (sc) (P ) r i,j = (P ) r i,j ( i,j n+1 (P )ri,j ) 1/ n(n + 1)/ (n + 1)
20 Adjusted residuals - alternative to scaled residuals... bias correction in the bootstrap estimation variance (adj) r i,j = r i,j n p n
21 Diagnostics for residuals - residuals and squared residuals - type of plots: accident years accounting years development years - no pattern visible - iid with zero mean, symmetrically distributed, common variance
22 Bootstrap procedure I - Ex: bootstrap in ODP (1) fit a model estimates α i, β j, γ, φ () fitted (expected) values for triangle X i,j = exp{ γ + α i + β j } (3) scaled Pearson residuals (sc) (P ) r i,j = X i,j X i,j φ Xi,j
23 Bootstrap procedure II { } (sc) (4) resample residuals (P ) r i,j B-times with replacement B} triangles of bootstrapped residuals { (sc) (P,b) r i,j, 1 b B (5) construct B bootstrap triangles (b)x i,j = (sc) (P,b) r i,j φ X i,j + X i,j (6) perform ODP on each bootstrap triangle bootstrapped estimates (b) α i, (b) βj, (b) γ, (b) φ
24 Bootstrap procedure III (7) calculate bootstrap reserves (b) R i = n j=n+ i (b) X i,j = exp{ (b) γ + (b) α i } n j=n+ i (4) (7) is a bootstrap loop (repeated B-times) exp{ (b) βj } (8) empirical distribution of size B for the reserves empirical (estimated) mean, s.e., quantiles,...

31 Comparison of distributional properties - why to bootstrap? - moment characteristics (mean, s.e.,... ) does not provide full information about the reserves distribution - additional assumption required in the classical approach % quantile necessary for VaR assuming normally distributed reserves assuming log-normally distributed reserves bootstrap
32 Conclusions - mean and variance do not contain full information about the distribution cannot provide quantities like VaR - assumption of log-normally distributed claims log-normally distributed reserves (far more restrictive) - various types of residuals - bootstrap (simulated) distribution mimics the unknown distribution of reserves (a mathematical proof necessary) - R software provides a free sufficient actuarial environment for reserving
