What it is
CLEAR
automobile insurance rating
developed in 1989 by a working group of actuaries, CIPs, IT professionals, statisticians and underwriters
equitable and defensible
based on each make/model’s pure vehicle experience
risk ≈ rate groups (symbols)
symbols are convertible to differentials (rating factors)
Lower risks=Lower rates

CLEAR
Why it was developed
most claims result in repair not replacement
price is only one of many possible predictive factors
cost saving features shouldn’t increase insurance premiums
crash test results may not reflect overall experience
a vehicle’s experience may change over time
because there are over 200 insurers, and only 18 million vehicles, Canadian insurers have to share their data to enable credible predictions
