5. 5 Policy Lifecycle LIFECYCLE OF PROPERTY CASUALTY POLICIES & THE PREDICTIVE MODELS THAT SUPPORT THEM Policies must be sold, priced and underwritten. Additional policies are cross-sold. Claims are filed and adjusted, and reserves are estimated. Lastly, pricing changes take place every policy period. Policy Acquisition Policy Underwriting Policy PricingCross-Sale Claim Adjustment Loss Reserving Policy Retention

6. 6  Competitive Intelligence – Estimate competitive position of renewal book – Estimate competitive position of prospects – Models options – In house or vendor supplied models  Models to estimate close rates – Estimate close rates based upon competitive comparison and other characteristics – Model options – Logistic models, CART, others  Lead qualification – Identify prospects that are most likely to respond to solicitation – Model options – Logistic models, CART – Incorporate third party consumer data Models Supporting Policy Acquisition LIFECYCLE OF PROPERTY CASUALTY POLICIES & THE PREDICTIVE MODELS THAT SUPPORT THEM Policy Acquisition

7. 7  Manage rate avoidance – Predict situations where inspections are appropriate – Identify potential inaccuracies in garaging address – Models Examples – Inspection models, use of commercial addresses, unrepaired damage  Tier/Company placement & schedule modification guidance – Estimate expected profitability of the business given the pricing model – Model options – Loss ratio models, offset loss cost models, classification modeling, GLM, CART Models Supporting Policy Underwriting LIFECYCLE OF PROPERTY CASUALTY POLICIES & THE PREDICTIVE MODELS THAT SUPPORT THEM Policy Underwriting

8. 8  Pricing Models – Loss cost, Frequency, Severity models – GLM very common – Expense models – Cohort studies, duration and expense activities  Scoring – Tier, credit score models, driving scores etc. – Transformations of underlying models, transformations  Territorial segmentation – Integration of geo-demographic data – Integration of competitor relativities – Geospatial smoothing Policy Pricing Models Supporting Policy Pricing LIFECYCLE OF PROPERTY CASUALTY POLICIES & THE PREDICTIVE MODELS THAT SUPPORT THEM

9. 9  Model cross-sale opportunities – Identify prospects likely to purchase additional products – Focus on sales channel, competitive offerings, client information – Primarily logistic models  Distribution models – Evaluate agency characteristics leading to greater product penetration – Evaluate agency characteristics leading to greater client satisfaction – Model options – Logistic models, CART, others Cross-Sale Models Supporting Cross-Sale LIFECYCLE OF PROPERTY CASUALTY POLICIES & THE PREDICTIVE MODELS THAT SUPPORT THEM
