The paper outlines the general theory of selecting appropriate statistical distributions for claims data and in maximizing model accuracy or fit. Two specific exposures, critical customer loss and supply chain disruption loss, are used as illustrations. From these distributions, an aggregate loss model is then proposed. The paper will discuss: 1. Possible ways to develop claims data from available market information for obscure insurance risks with application to specific examples. 2. Outline of the theory of parametric estimation. 3. Applying primarily parametric techniques to optimize the ‘fit’ of the estimated distributions for severity and frequency of claims distributions. 4. Development of possible aggregate loss models for the two specific exposures. 5. Proposed areas for further study.enaggregateinsurancelossobscureparametricThesis or Dissertation
