Q.1 Elaborate :
        a) IBNR
        b) Ultimate net Loss
        c) Retrocessionaire
        d) Minimum and Deposit Premium.

Ans: a) IBNR
              (Incurred But Not Reported). Most of the
              claims are only advised some years after the
              date of occurrence. This late reporting may be
              due to administrative problems of the insurer
              or it may be due to the normal delay in claims
              being made on the insurer by claimants.

b) Ultimate net Loss

    In reinsurance, the unit of loss to which the
    reinsurance applies, as determined by the
    reinsurance agreement. In other words, the
    gross loss less any recoveries from other
    reinsurance which reduce the loss to the treaty
    in question. Underlying. The amount of loss
    which attaches before the next higher excess
    layer of insurance or reinsurance attaches.
