Extract

Actuaries often need to construct a mathematical model, representing the expected future experience of a group of risks, where the data available from the group are not large enough to provide results which are sufficient for this purpose. A wider experience derived from risks, which have some features in common with the group's risks, must be combined with that of the group in such a way that the weight attached to the group's experience in the combination corresponds with its value for rating purposes.
