Question 4(15 marks) ABC insurance company accepts fire business up to a maximum sum
insured of $500,000. To limit its maximum liability per risk to $100,000,ABC insurance company
is considering the following excess of loss reinsurance:
Per risk excess cover of $400,000xS$100,000 with premium adjustable at a certain
percentage (commercial rate) of gross net premium income (GNPI).
This cover has one reinstatement pro rata as to the amount, payable at 25%.
Assume:
(1) ABC insurance company's expected GNPI is $10 million;
(2) during the treaty year, the total claim is 3 million. Only two claims (i.e., $350,000 and $220,000)
exceed the $100,000 deductible under the proposed risk excess of loss cover.
4.1 The reinsurer uses a loaded burning cost method to calculate the commercial rate for the above
excess of loss cover. The aggregated GNPI and claims to cover in the past five years are 52
million and 5.85 million, respectively. A loading factor of 10075th is used. Calculate the
commercial rate for the cover. (6 marks)
4.2 What would be the total amount of claims that can be recovered from the excess of loss cover?
(4 marks)
4.3 What would be the total reinsurance premium for the cover payable to the reinsurer by the end
of the treaty year? Keep a 2-decimal place for your answer. (5 marks)
