Comparing the Performance of Stochastic Loss Reserving Methods for Different Loss Severity Distributions

Öz

In this paper, stochastic loss reserving methods are compared using the mean absolute percentage error criterion. For this purpose, loss development squares (upper-left development triangles and lower-right goal triangles) are simulated using individual losses with changing severity under the scenarios where various distributional assumptions are made. In this loss square generating method, the distribution and the development process of a loss are considered from its occurrence to the closure based on the reporting and settlement delays. After simulating the loss development squares, loss reserves are estimated with the inflation-adjusted chain-ladder method and three different logarithmic regression models. The performance of the loss reserving methods is examined by comparing the estimated and actual loss reserves for different distributions commonly used for individual loss amount modeling in non-life insurance. It is seen that logarithmic regression models generally perform better than chain-ladder method for the specified scenarios.
