MunichChainLadder {ChainLadder} | R Documentation |
The Munich-chain-ladder model forecasts ultimate claims based on a cumulative
paid and incurred claims triangle.
The model assumes that the Mack-chain-ladder model is applicable
to the paid and incurred claims triangle, see MackChainLadder
.
MunichChainLadder(Paid, Incurred, est.sigmaP = "log-linear", est.sigmaI = "log-linear", tailP=FALSE, tailI=FALSE)
Paid |
cumulative paid claims triangle. Assume columns are the development period, use transpose otherwise. A (mxn)-matrix P_{ik} which is filled for k <=q n+1-i; i=1,...,m; m>=q n |
Incurred |
cumulative incurred claims triangle. Assume columns are the development period, use transpose otherwise. A (mxn)-matrix I_{ik} which is filled for k <=q n+1-i; i=1,...,m, m>=q n |
est.sigmaP |
defines how sigma_{n-1} for the Paid triangle
is estimated, see est.sigma in MackChainLadder for
more details, as est.sigmaP gets passed on to
MackChainLadder
|
est.sigmaI |
defines how sigma_{n-1} for the Incurred triangle
is estimated, see est.sigma in MackChainLadder for
more details, as est.sigmaI is passed on to
MackChainLadder
|
tailP |
defines how the tail of the Paid triangle is estimated and
is passed on to MackChainLadder , see tail just there. |
tailI |
defines how the tail of the Incurred triangle is estimated and
is passed on to MackChainLadder , see tail just there. |
