What is the critical element in the success and profitability in the car insurance business (or any insurance business for that matter?
Example:
How much would you set the How much would you set the insurances rates for 4 customers insurances rates for 4 customers if the only things you know are:if the only things you know are:they will experience a combined loss they will experience a combined loss
of $1,000 of $1,000 it will cost you 50 cents on every it will cost you 50 cents on every
dollar to process each claimdollar to process each claimyou want to make a 10% profit on you want to make a 10% profit on
your total expenses?your total expenses?
Solution is easy:
Expenses = 1000 *.5 = 500Expenses = 1000 *.5 = 500 Total outlays = 1000 + 500 = 1500Total outlays = 1000 + 500 = 1500 Profit = 1500 * .1 = 150Profit = 1500 * .1 = 150 Total Req’d Revenue = 1500 + 150 = Total Req’d Revenue = 1500 + 150 =
16501650 Insurance rate per person = 1650 / 4 = Insurance rate per person = 1650 / 4 =
412.5412.5
New Information
What if we now know that the expected What if we now know that the expected loses for the customers are as follows:loses for the customers are as follows:A = $100A = $100B = $200B = $200C = $300C = $300D = $400D = $400
For a total of $1,000. How much would you For a total of $1,000. How much would you set now the rates for each person given set now the rates for each person given the same parameters as before (50% the same parameters as before (50% additional expenses and 10% profit on additional expenses and 10% profit on outlays)outlays)
Solution
For customer A:For customer A:Expenses = 100 *.5 = 50Expenses = 100 *.5 = 50Total outlays = 100 + 50 = 150Total outlays = 100 + 50 = 150Profit = 150 * .1 = 15Profit = 150 * .1 = 15Total Req’d Revenue = Insurance rate for A Total Req’d Revenue = Insurance rate for A
= 150 + 15 = $165 = 150 + 15 = $165 For Customer B: $330For Customer B: $330 For Customer C: $495For Customer C: $495 For Customer B: $660For Customer B: $660
Solution cont’d
Total outlays are still $1,500Total outlays are still $1,500Total premiums are still $1,650Total premiums are still $1,650Total profits are still $150Total profits are still $150
What if you have competition One company (Matta) offers a flat rate and the other (Progressive) offers a rate based on expected losses:
