<p>A modern practical guide to building and using actuarial models.      </p>

decisions about managing the risks based on conclusions drawn from the
analysis. In practice, one begins with data and ends with a <a target="_top" id="AdBriteInlineAd_business" name="AdBriteInlineAd_business" style="background: transparent url(http://files.adbrite.com/mb/images/green-double-underline-006600.gif) repeat-x scroll center bottom; cursor: pointer; color: rgb(0, 102, 0); text-decoration: none; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; margin-bottom: -2px; padding-bottom: 2px;">business</a>
decision. The book flows logically from this principle. It begins with
a framework for model building and a description of frequency and
severity loss data typically available to actuaries. Parametric models
are emphasized throughout. </p>
<p>The frequency and severity models
are used in building aggregate loss models, in credibility-based
pricing models, and in loss analysis over multiple time periods. </p>
