EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

COMPANY DECISION

We encourage each insurer to decide independently whether the judgments

made and the procedures or data used by ISO in developing the PMFs contained

herein are appropriate for your use. We have included within this document the

information upon which ISO relied in order to enable companies to make such

independent judgments. The data underlying the enclosed material comes from

companies reporting to Insurance Services Office, Inc. Therefore, the ISO

experience permits the establishment of a much broader statistical ratemaking

base than could be employed by using any individual company's data. A

broader data base enhances the validity of ratemaking analysis derived

therefrom.

At the same time, however, an individual company may benefit from a

comparison of its own experience to the aggregate ISO experience, and may

reach valid conclusions with respect to the manner in which its own costs can be

expected to differ from ISO's projection based on the aggregate data.

Some calculations included in this document involve areas of ISO staff

judgment. Each company should carefully review and evaluate whether the ISO

selected PMFs are appropriate for its use.

The material has been developed exclusively by the staff of Insurance Services

Office, Inc.

COMMERCIAL PACKAGE POLICY

METHODOLOGY OVERVIEW

OBJECTIVE A Commercial Package Policy (CPP) is essentially a combination of monoline

coverages. CPP pricing employs monoline loss costs modified by Package

Modification Factors (PMFs). These factors vary by the eight CPP types of policy

and are reviewed biennially. Monoline and multiline experience are combined and

reviewed via a monoline/multiline relativity analysis. The resulting indicated PMFs

represent the loss cost for a CPP relative to that for monoline policies providing the

same coverages.

STEP 1: THE

RELATIVITY

ANALYSES

Each line of insurance develops indicated changes to monoline and multiline

aggregate loss costs based on an experience ratio relativity analysis for that coverage.

The monoline indication represents the needed change to monoline loss costs. The

multiline indication represents the needed change to multiline aggregate loss costs,

which is implemented through changes to the PMFs. For this PMF analysis,

multiline indications are developed for each line of insurance and Type of Policy.

Relativity analyses are explained in Section B.

STEP 2:

CALCULATION

OF THE PMFs

The procedure described above generates indicated Implicit PMFs (IPMFs) which

vary by the various lines of insurance and by type of policy. IPMFs represent what

the PMF would be for the CPP risk if only a single coverage were written. For each

Type of Policy, IPMFs are weighted by CPP aggregate loss costs to determine the

indicated property and liability PMFs. These PMFs may be capped, or rounded to the

nearest one percent, and certain component IPMFs appropriately adjusted for this

change. These calculations are explained in the remainder of Section A.

SUMMARY OF THIS REVIEW

The display below summarizes the review and shows the capped

Package Modification Factors for Property and Liability.

For each type of risk, the PMFs are determined to be those

factors which when applied to the monoline loss costs

produce the appropriate CPP aggregate loss cost level as

determined by an analysis of the CPP experience.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLE 2

CALCULATION OF REVISED PACKAGE MODIFICATION FACTORS

OBJECTIVE Commercial package policies were introduced in the 1960's as a convenient tool for

both insurer and insured to have the many types of insurance needed by commercial

risks packaged under one cover. Thus fire, extended coverage, crime, liability

insurance, etc. could be written using a single policy instead of several. Today,

virtually any type of monoline coverage can also be purchased as part of a package

policy such as the CPP.

The types of insured which can be written under a CPP are generally categorized into

the following Types of Policy:

. Motels and Hotels (TOP 31)

. Apartments (TOP 32)

. Offices (TOP 33)

. Mercantile Operations (TOP 34)

. Institutions (TOP 35)

. Service Operations (TOP 36)

. Industrial and Processing Operations (TOP 37)

. Contractors (TOP 38)

PRICING OF

POLICIES

Since a CPP is essentially a combination of monoline coverages, CPP pricing

employs monoline loss costs modified by PMFs (Package Modification Factors).

These factors vary by the categories shown above and are reviewed annually.

CPP PMF

REVIEW

PROCEDURE

The CPP review of Package Modification Factors, which appears in Table 2 of this

document, determines the appropriate PMF loss cost level for each of the eight CPP

categories. This is done by combining the indications of the simultaneous reviews of

monoline and multiline experience for the various lines (or coverages).

A detailed explanation of the calculation of the revised PMFs follows.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLE 2 (Cont'd)

LINES OF

INSURANCE

(COVERAGES)

INCLUDED

The CPP review reflects the contribution from each significant coverage which can

be written on a CPP. Included are:

Property Coverages

. Basic Group I (BGI) - the predominant property coverage included.

. Basic Group II (BGII) - both Basic Group I and Basic Group II must be

purchased under a CPP contract.

. Special Causes of Loss (SCL) - typically a type of insurance which is

purchased in addition to Basic Group I and Basic Group II in order to provide

"all risk" property coverage for the insured.

. Crime (CRIME) - Crime insurance is a commonly purchased CPP coverage.

. Inland Marine (INL. MAR.) - A highly specialized line of property insurance,

Inland Marine coverages can be purchased as part of a package policy.

. Fidelity (FIDELITY) - Certain forms of fidelity insurance can be part of the

CPP package. Various forms of employee dishonesty coverage are available.

Liability Coverages

. Owners, Landlords and Tenants (OL&T) Liability - this is the prevalent type of

Premises/Operations liability for CPP insureds.

. Manufacturers and Contractors Liability (M&C) - this is the type of

Premises/Operations liability insurance for risks whose liability exposure is

more heavily off-premises than on.

. Products/Completed Operations Liability (PROD) - this type of insurance

protects against claims for damages arising from products/completed

operations in conjunction with an insured's business. For review purposes, this

line of insurance is split into the following two categories:

- Products: experience for this category is reviewed on a multistate basis.

- Local Products/ Completed Operations: experience for this category

reflects an exposure to loss which is local in nature; therefore, individual

state experience is used.

THE IMPLICIT

PACKAGE

MODIFICATION

FACTOR

For each applicable coverage listed under each of the eight (8) CPP categories, a

"current implicit PMF" is shown in column (2). The definition of this factor follows:

For a given CPP category (e.g., apartments) the published Package Modification

Factor (PMF) represents the loss cost for a CPP relative to that for monoline policies

providing the same coverages. Thus a property (liability) PMF of .80 represents a

20% lower aggregate loss cost for a CPP than for the comparable monoline policies.

This PMF, however, represents the CPP "loss cost" for all property (liability)

coverages combined. Based on CPP experience, it has been determined that this CPP

"loss cost" can differ significantly if it is determined for each property (liability)

coverage individually. The IPMF represents what the PMF would be for that CPP

risk if only a single coverage were written. The use of the IPMF in monoline/

multiline ratemaking and in the determination of revised CPP Package Modification

Factors is significant in that it appropriately identifies how different the component

parts of the multiline "loss cost" are.

THE MULTILINE

INDICATION

Under the CPP ratemaking procedures, monoline and multiline experience are

combined for each coverage. The results of these coverage analyses are indicated

changes to monoline loss costs and also indicated CPP aggregate loss cost level

changes. The CPP indications by coverage are then incorporated in the CPP PMF

review. These indications (shown in column (3)) represent the needed adjustments to

the IPMFs (shown in column (2)) described above.

The development of these indications is detailed in Section B.

THE INDICATED

PMF

For each CPP category (and for property vs. liability), the indicated PMF is

calculated as follows:

Each of the current IPMFs in column (2) is multiplied by the indicated percent

change shown in column (3). A weighted average of the indicated IPMFs, using

weights based on latest year aggregate loss costs at current ISO loss cost level

(column (1) divided by column (2)), yields the indicated PMF at the bottom of

column (4).

THE CAPPED

PMF

The indicated PMF for each category (and for property vs. liability) shown at the

bottom of column (4) is limited to a maximum of 1.00 in arriving at the proposed

PMF (bottom of column (5)). All indicated PMFs which are below 1.00 are rounded

to the nearest .01 in determining the proposed PMF. To the extent that any indicated

PMFs are capped at 1.00, indicated PMFs below this value are adjusted in order to

minimize any revenue changes which would result from capping.

In addition to the adjustments just described, the IPMFs (for property and liability)

shown in column (4) are subject to minimum and maximum values and adjusted in

column (5) so that they average to the proposed PMF shown at the bottom of column

(5).

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLES 3 AND 4

BASIC GROUP I AND SPECIAL CAUSES OF LOSS RELATIVITY ANALYSIS

OBJECTIVE The explanations which follow clarify Tables 3 and 4, the Basic Group I Relativity

Analysis and the Special Causes of Loss Relativity Analysis, respectively. The

purpose of these analyses is to:

(1) determine monoline classification loss cost level needs for Basic

Group I for class versus specifically rated risks;

(2) determine monoline category loss cost level needs for Special

Causes of Loss;

(3) determine indicated changes to the eight property CPP Package

Modification Factors (PMFs) based on Basic Group I/Special Causes of

Loss experience.

COLUMN (1) LEAST SQUARES FORMULA RELATIVITIES

The Least Squares Formula Relativities are the marginal relativities which result

from the application of the simultaneous review procedure to the raw experience

(where marginal refers to the relativities for a given rating variable, e.g. type of

policy, across all subsets of any other rating variables, i.e. rating group and rating

ID for Basic Group I, and category for Special Causes of Loss).

The purpose of such a simultaneous review procedure is to arrive at a set of type

of policy relativities (which will serve to price CPP policies relative to monoline

policies via the PMF); a set of rating group relativities for Basic Group I; and a set

of category relativities for Special Causes of Loss that best represent the

experience. This procedure is in contrast to a review of each rating variable's

experience separately. Such one-way types of review do not take into account

differing percentages of monoline and multiline experience in each rating variable,

nor differing percentages of a particular rating variable's experience in the

monoline and multiline types of policy. The simultaneous relativity procedure

accounts for these different distributions in generating relativities for the various

rating variables.

The procedure uses an iterative technique to determine a set of marginal

relativities by rating variable that is a best fit to the individual cell relativities,

with each cell being defined as the cross-section of specific values of each rating

variable. The process uses the relativity of the five year experience ratios by

rating cell to the overall statewide experience ratio and the latest year aggregate

loss costs for each rating cell. (This experience is shown in Table 5 for Basic

Group I and Table 6 for Special Causes of Loss). Specifically, the iteration

procedure uses the following formulas:

. n is the number of Rating Groups or Categories in the analysis.

The procedure determines m Type of Policy relativities using the above

formulas. Then, using those results, a set of n Rating Group or Category

relativities are determined. These steps form an iterative process which

continues until there is no appreciable difference in results from one iteration to

the next.

COLUMN (2) CREDIBILITY

The credibility of the experience for each rating variable is determined from the

formula:

KP

PZ

where P is the 5-year adjusted aggregate loss costs for a given rating variable,

and K is a constant value. For Basic Group I, K equals an aggregate loss cost

volume of $40,000,000 for rating group and $100,000,000 for type of policy.

For Special Causes of Loss, K equals an aggregate loss cost volume of

$15,000,000.

COLUMN (3) CREDIBILITY-WEIGHTED RELATIVITIES

Credibility-weighted relativities are calculated based on the formula

ZRW

where Z is the credibility, R is the least squares formula relativity and W is the

credibility-weighted relativity for a given rating variable.

This formula implicitly assigns the complement of credibility to a relativity of

unity.

COLUMN (4) BALANCED RELATIVITIES

The credibility-weighted relativities are balanced to assure that the average

relativity across all rating variables remains at unity.

BALANCED RELATIVITIES - RATING ID (BASIC GROUP I ONLY)

For Basic Group I, balanced relativities are calculated for rating IDs (class

versus specific). These relativities are calculated via a separate simultaneous

procedure, which differs in a number of ways from the simultaneous review

discussed above.

The BGI rating ID relativities resulting from this procedure are balanced and

weighted together with the results of the Table 3 simultaneous review procedure

used to generate marginal relativities for the other BGI rating variables to

produce the monoline loss cost changes.

MULTILINE

CONSIDERATIONS

The type of policy (TOP) relativities are used to generate multiline indications

which apply to the current Implicit Package Modification Factors (IPMFs). The

indicated IPMFs are calculated as follows:

TOP y indicated = (TOP y current IPMF)x(TOP y relativity)

IPMF monoline relativity

MULTILINE

CONSIDERATIONS

(Cont'd)

For each CPP Type of Policy the indicated IPMF is subject to a minimum value of

0.50 and a maximum value of 1.50. If an indicated IPMF falls outside one of those

limits, it is capped at that amount, the aggregate loss costs for that Type of Policy

are adjusted to the capped IPMF level, and the entire relativity review as described

above is re-performed to take this into account. If an IPMF has been capped it is so

noted at the bottom of Table 3 and Table 4.

Loss cost changes for each TOP are calculated as described on Tables 3 and 4.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLES 5 AND 6

BASIC GROUP I/SPECIAL CAUSES OF LOSS RELATIVITY ANALYSIS

SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCE USED IN SIMULTANEOUS REVIEW

INTRODUCTION The experience used in the relativity analysis and displayed in Tables 5 and 6 is

the latest five years of accident year data as reported under the Commercial

Statistical Plan. As in the overall review, loss costs have been adjusted to

current ISO loss cost and prospective amount of insurance levels (with

multiline aggregate loss costs adjusted additionally by the current implicit

package modification factors). Incurred losses are adjusted to prospective cost

levels, and are further adjusted by the Basic Group I large loss procedure and

the Special Causes of Loss excess procedure. Losses have also been developed

to their ultimate settlement value by application of loss development factors.

COLUMN (1) AGGREGATE LOSS COSTS

The latest year adjusted aggregate loss costs (adjusted as described above) are

used as weights both in the calculation of any totals shown in this table and in

the iterative formulae used in the simultaneous review procedure.

COLUMN (2) 5 - YEAR AGGREGATE LOSS COSTS

The combined five-year adjusted aggregate loss costs (adjusted as described

above) are used to calculate the experience ratios in column (3).

COLUMN (3) FIVE-YEAR EXPERIENCE RATIOS

These are the ratio of the combined five-year adjusted incurred losses (adjusted

as described above) to the combined five-year adjusted aggregate loss costs as

shown in Column (2). Any totals which are shown are weighted averages using

the adjusted aggregate loss costs in Column (1).

COLUMN (4)

CREDIBILITY (Z) WEIGHTED EXPERIENCE RATIO

A credibility procedure is applied to the initial experience ratios in column (3)

on a cell-by-cell basis prior to the simultaneous review procedure. The

credibility values are calculated using an empirical Bayesian credibility

procedure. In the following discussion, cell refers to an individual combination

of TOP, rating group or category, and territory (where applicable).

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLES 5 AND 6 (Cont'd)

COLUMN (4)

(Cont'd)

The important concept underlying empirical Bayesian credibility is that the

credibility should depend both on the overall variation of the group of which

the cell is a member, in addition to the variation of the yearly experience ratios

for each cell. Therefore, if a cell's data is itself very stable then we would

assign a relatively high credibility value, and vice versa.

The empirical Bayesian credibility formula for individual cell credibility is

Z = ((C-3)/C) (P/(P+K)) + (3/C). P equals the cell's five-year adjusted

aggregate loss costs and C equals the number of unique combinations of rating

variables (Territory, TOP and Rating Group/Category) within a class group.

The K value is estimated from the underlying data using the empirical Bayes

method and varies by TOP group and by territory where applicable. The three

TOP groups used in this analysis are: Monoline (TOP 10), Premises (TOP's 31-

35), and Operations (TOP's 36-38). The 3/C term corrects for the statistical

bias associated with the credibility process. The minimum credibility that is

possible is 3/C.

The calculated credibility (Z) is then applied to the five-year experience ratio

with the complement of credibility applied to the credibility-weighted average

of the individual experience ratios of the group, where group refers to the

specified TOP/territory group. In a non-territory state, K values would be

determined for the three TOP groups on an entire state basis.

COLUMN (5) WEIGHTED RELATIVITIES

The relativities are the ratios of the five-year credibility-weighted experience

ratios shown in column (4) to the average five-year credibility-weighted

experience ratio for all TOP's, rating groups and territories (where applicable)

combined. These relativities represent how much better or worse than average

the experience for a given cell is. They are used along with the aggregate loss

costs in column (1) as input for the simultaneous review procedure.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLE 7

BASIC GROUP II RELATIVITY ANALYSIS

OBJECTIVE The explanations which follow clarify Table 7, the Basic Group II (BGII)

relativity analysis. The purpose of this analysis is to:

(1) determine the monoline loss cost level need;

(2) determine indicated changes to the eight property Commercial

Package Policy (CPP) Package Modification Factors (PMFs)

based on Basic Group II experience.

COLUMN (1) AGGREGATE LOSS COSTS

The latest accident year adjusted aggregate loss costs (adjusted in the same

manner as in the overall review, i.e. to current manual loss cost and prospective

amount of insurance levels, with multiline aggregate loss costs further adjusted

to current IPMF level) are used as weights in the calculation of any totals shown

in this table.

COLUMN (2) 10 - YEAR EXPERIENCE RATIO

These experience ratios are the ratio of the combined ten year CSP adjusted

incurred losses (adjusted to current deductible and prospective cost levels

including loss development, and also adjusted to reflect the BGII excess loss

procedure) to the combined ten year CSP adjusted aggregate loss costs. Any

totals which are shown are weighted averages using the aggregate loss costs in

Column (1). When a dash is displayed in the column, it indicates that the

indicated IPMF which resulted from this procedure was capped. The procedure

which follows when capping occurs is described below.

COLUMN (3) FORMULA RELATIVITY

The formula relativities are the ratios of the ten year experience ratios for the

type of policy (either monoline vs. multiline or individual multiline programs) to

the average ten year experience ratio for monoline and multiline combined.

These relativities represent how much better or worse than average the

experience for a given type of policy is. Again, any totals which are shown are

weighted averages and the display of a dash indicates that the resulting IPMF

was capped.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLE 7 (Cont'd)

COLUMN (3)

(Cont'd)

Unlike the BGI and SCL relativity analyses, the BGII analysis does not employ

a simultaneous review procedure since a one way review is involved. That is,

the overall loss cost change is only distributed across type of policy; no other

rating variables are considered.

COLUMN (4) CREDIBILITY

The credibility of the experience for each type of policy is determined from the

formula:

KP

PZ

where P is the ten year adjusted aggregate loss costs for a given type of policy,

and K is a constant loss cost volume of $45,000,000.

COLUMN (5) Z - WEIGHTED RELATIVITY

The weighted relativity is a weighted average of the individual TOP formula

relativity and the overall (coverage) formula relativity using credibility and its

complement as the respective weights. Therefore, to the extent that the

indication for a type of policy is not fully credible, the complement of credibility

is assigned to the statewide coverage level change.

COLUMN (6) BALANCED FORMULA RELATIVITY

The individual multiline weighted relativities are balanced to the multiline

weighted relativity level by applying a factor equal to the overall multiline

relativity (i.e. the weighted relativity for all multiline combined which is shown

on the top of the exhibit directly under the corresponding monoline relativity)

divided by the average multiline relativity (i.e. the weighted average of the

individual multiline weighted relativities which is shown on the bottom of the

exhibit). When the indicated IPMF for a type of policy is capped, the balanced

relativity is set equal to the product of the capped IPMF and the monoline

balanced formula relativity, divided by the current IPMF.

© Insurance Services Office, Inc., 2015 Washington ML-2015-RLA1 B-20

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLE 7 (Cont'd)

COLUMN (7) NORMALIZED FORMULA RELATIVITY

The normalized relativity is equal to the balanced formula relativity divided by

the average monoline/multiline combined relativity. This balances the average

monoline/multiline relativity to unity.

COLUMN (8) INDICATED LOSS COST CHANGES

The indicated multiline (by TOP) changes are calculated by taking the ratio of

the TOP relativity (Column 7) to the monoline relativity.

For each type of policy the indicated IPMF is subject to a minimum value of

0.50 and a maximum value of 1.50. If an indicated IPMF falls outside one of

those limits, it is capped at that amount, the aggregate loss costs for that type of

policy are adjusted to the capped IPMF level, and the entire relativity review as

described above is redone to take this into account. If an IPMF has been capped

it is so noted in footnote A.

CRIME AND FIDELITY

Crime and Fidelity filing CR-2013-RLA1 revised advisory prospective loss costs for both the Burglary and Theft

and the Fidelity coverages. The reviews for Burglary and Theft and for Fidelity were done on a multistate basis,

combining both multiline and monoline experience. However, unlike other coverages included in a Commercial

Package Policy, there is no simultaneous review procedure for either Burglary and Theft or for Fidelity in which

separate loss cost level changes can be determined for multiline and monoline experience. In the absence of a

simultaneous review procedure we are unable to determine Type of Policy relativities with which to price CPP

policies relative to monoline policies and therefore have assumed a multiline change of 0.0% and thus no change

to the historic Crime or Fidelity IPMFs.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO TABLES 8 AND 9

COMMERCIAL INLAND MARINE RELATIVITY ANALYSIS

EXPERIENCE

BASE

The Commercial Inland Marine IPMF review presented in the attached exhibits is

based on a review of the latest available five years of monoline and multiline

experience through accident year 2012 for all companies reporting data to Insurance

Services Office under the Inland Marine Module of the Commercial Statistical Plan

(CSP) and the Intermediate Level of the Commercial Minimum Statistical Plan

(CMSP).

ADJUSTMENT

OF DATA

Aggregate loss costs for each year in the review period have been adjusted to the

levels which would have been earned had the current loss costs applied throughout

the experience period. Reported premiums are adjusted to current level on an

individual policy basis by applying a factor equal to all loss cost level changes that

have been implemented subsequent to the policy being written. These adjusted

premiums are then converted to a loss cost at current level. In order to eliminate the

impact of company deviations from the manual level and individual risk

modifications which were in effect at the time the policy was written, aggregate loss

costs are further adjusted based on reported Rate Modification and Rate Departure

Factors/Loss Cost Multipliers. Multiline aggregate loss costs are further adjusted to

the level of the current Implicit Package Modification Factor (IPMF). Incurred

losses are loaded for all loss adjustment expenses by applying a factor of 1.105.

RELATIVITY

ANALYSIS

For Inland Marine coverage, a multistate IPMF level is determined via a two-way

relativity analysis similar to the analysis used in Basic Group I. The experience for

all reviewed classes is used to form class group relativities. These relativities for

monoline and multiline (all programs combined) are determined through an iterative

procedure. The ratio of the multiline relativity to the monoline relativity is multiplied

by the current IPMF to yield the indicated IPMF. The indicated IPMF is subject to a

minimum value of 0.500 and a maximum value of 1.500. If an indicated IPMF falls

outside one of those limits, it is capped at that amount, the premiums for that Type of

Policy (i.e., TOP 10 versus TOP 3X) are adjusted to the capped IPMF level, and the

entire relativity review is reperformed to take this into account.

RELATIVITY ANALYSIS - TABLES 10 THROUGH 18.

OBJECTIVES The objectives of this procedure are to:

1) determine monoline loss cost level needs for the appropriate rating variables;

2) determine indicated changes to the eight liability Commercial Package Policy

(CPP) Package Modification Factors (PMFs) based on Premises/Operations and

Products/Completed Operations data.

EXPERIENCE

BASE

The experience used in this relativity analysis is the latest five (5) years of accident

year data, as reported under the Commercial Statistical Plan with aggregate loss costs

adjusted to current loss cost level (multiline aggregate loss costs adjusted additionally

by the current Implicit Package Modification Factors). Losses have been trended and

developed in the Relativity Analysis. ALCCL have been trended.

SIMULTANEOUS

DETERMINATION

OF RATING

VARIABLE

RELATIVITIES

Once the aggregate loss costs at current level and incurred losses used in the analysis

have been appropriately adjusted, the 5-year experience ratios are calculated for each

combination of the appropriate rating variables. From these ratios, relativities to the

statewide 5-year experience ratio are calculated. These relativities are then used in a

minimum bias iterative review procedure, which simultaneously determines the

relativities for each rating variable.

The purpose of a simultaneous review procedure is to arrive at a set of relativities for

each rating variable that best represent the experience. For example, the type of

policy relativities will serve to derive the relationship of CPP policies relative to

monoline policies, via the PMF, while the class group and territory (if applicable)

relativities will serve to derive the relationship of the various classification and

territories relative to one another. An iterative technique is used to derive relativities

for each rating variable. This procedure is in contrast to a one-way type of review,

wherein relativities for each rating variable would each be reviewed separately.

Such one-way types of review do not take into account differing percentages of

experience of each rating variable within the other rating variables. The simultaneous

review procedure accounts for these different distributions in generating relativities

for each rating variable.

ITERATIVE

PROCEDURE

The iterative technique referred to in the previous paragraph solves for a set of

relativities for each rating variable based on the experience for the cells; that is,

based on the experience ratio and latest year adjusted aggregate loss cost volume

for each combination of rating variables relative to the experience ratio and

adjusted aggregate loss cost volume for all combinations of rating variables

combined. Specifically, the iterative procedure uses the following formulas:

ITERATIVE

PROCEDURE

(Cont'd)

For example, for Owners, Landlords and Tenants, the procedure starts by inserting

the actual relativities for type of policy and class group into the third formula to

get a territory relativity. This result is then used with the class group relativity in

the first formula to get a new type of policy relativity, which in turn is substituted

along with the territory relativity into the second formula to get a new class group

relativity. The process continues on in that fashion until there is no appreciable

difference from one iteration to the next.

APPLICATION OF

CREDIBILITY

Consideration is then given to the credibility of the experience for each rating

variable. The credibility of each of these categories is based on the formula

Z =000,18

P for Owners, Landlords and Tenants, Z =000,18

P for

Manufacturers and Contractors and Z = 000,20

P for Products, where P is the 5

year occurrence total for a given class group, territory or type of policy. For Local

Products/Completed Operations, separate formulas are used to calculate the

credibility of the experience for each type of policy and class group versus the

credibility of the experience for each state, namely Z =000,15

P for type of

policy and class group, and Z = 500,5

P for state(in this case, P is the 5 year

occurrence total for a given state). Credibility-weighted relativities are then

calculated as follows:

W = RZ where:

Z is the class group, territory, state or type of policy credibility;

R is the class group, territory, state or type of policy relativity;

W is the credibility-weighted relativity.

The resulting credibility-weighted relativities are then balanced to assure that the

average relativity remains at unity.

MULTILINE

CONSIDERATIONS

The monoline relativities and the class group, territory (if applicable) and state

relativities which result from the aforementioned procedures are then used to

generate indicated monoline classification loss cost changes. The multiline

relativities are used to generate multiline indications that apply to the current

Implicit Package Modification Factors. The indicated IPMFs are calculated as

follows:

TOP y indicated IPMF= (TOP y current IPMF) x (TOP y relativity)

(monoline relativity )

For each CPP Type of Policy the indicated IPMF is subject to a minimum value of

0.50 and a maximum value of 1.50. If an indicated IPMF falls outside one of those

limits, it is capped at that amount, the aggregate loss costs for that Type of Policy

are adjusted to the capped IPMF level, and the entire relativity review as described

above is re-performed to take this into account.
