It'll grow on you. You just have to read each part about 10 times.

I'm on part 3, and I spent about 15 minutes trying to figure out why they calculated the LERs the way they did. Then I decided my way was better.

Uploaded E8a&b (The last of the G&S)

I'll have Teng posted later today, that should wrap up all of the papers, I'll have the last 2 rating manuals sometime soon as well. Then, it's on to problems.

Please do enjoy!

Added Teng (E9).

All that's left is the NCCI Retro Rating Manual & The ISO CGL Plan. Those'll be awhile coming, but should be up in a week or so.

All the actual papers are done though

AM, seriously, thank you for doing this. It is very generous of you. At the rate you are going, I don't imagine that you are concerned with giving up any sort of competitive advantage, but you are really helping a lot of people. I have found your notes to be at least as good as any of the study manuals.

Alright, UPDATE TIME!

I redid my Retro Rating notes to incorporate Mahler's Errata, so I redid the handmade example, and figured, what the hell, I'll post my spreadsheet.

So, This is the B3 Post! Replace your copies with these!!



B3 - Retrospective Rating, 1997 Excess Loss Factors.pdf
B3b - Retro Rating 1997 XS Loss Factors.xls
B3c - Handwritten Example.pdf
