.
  1. 按细分维度汇总经验数据(风险暴露、出险频率、损失严重程度、纯保费)
  2. 根据既定方法计算趋势及水平调整值

Key metrics (analyst must define each time)

关键指标(分析师每次必须明确定义)

MetricAnalyst responsibility
Earned premiumMatch earning pattern to loss basis in exhibit footnote
Loss ratioState numerator (incurred vs paid) and denominator
Development factorAge-to-age vs cumulative; calendar vs accident year
IBNRDefinition (incurred vs paid basis); split case/IBNR if required
Pure premiumExposure unit documented (car-year, member month, payroll)
Indicated changeGross vs credibility-weighted; constraint notes from underwriting
PYDBridge to prior quarter/year with volume vs rate vs development split
指标分析师职责
已赚保费在图表脚注中匹配损失基准的保费赚取模式
损失率明确分子(已发生 vs 已付)及分母
发展因子明确年对年 vs 累计;日历年 vs 事故年
IBNR明确定义(已发生 vs 已付基准);必要时拆分已报案/IBNR
纯保费记录风险暴露单位(车年、会员月、薪资)
指示费率变化原始 vs 可信度加权;记录核保约束说明
PYD按业务量 vs 费率 vs 发展拆分与上季度/年度的调节表

Tool patterns (agnostic)

工具使用模式(通用)

TaskTypical approach
Triangles and factorsSpreadsheet triangles; SQL/R aggregation; actuarial reserving tools
ReconciliationVLOOKUP/XLOOKUP keys; SQL joins; Python pandas groupbys
Version controlDated folders; change log sheet; avoid "final_final" without version ID
Model runsParameter export; diff prior vs current outputs; checksum on input files
DocumentationExhibit index; definition tab; color only for review flags, not logic
Prefer reproducible steps actuaries can re-run; avoid opaque manual cell edits without audit trail.
任务典型方法
三角表与因子计算电子表格三角表;SQL/R聚合;精算准备金工具
核对工作VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP键值;SQL连接;Python pandas分组
版本控制带日期的文件夹;变更日志表;避免无版本ID的"final_final"命名
模型运行参数导出;对比往期与当前输出;输入文件校验和
文档记录图表索引;定义标签页;仅用颜色标记审核标识,而非逻辑
优先选择精算师可重复运行的可复现步骤;避免无审计轨迹的不透明手动单元格编辑。

Ethics and reliance (analyst)

职业道德与依赖事项(分析师)

  • Label work as draft or analyst support until actuary review
  • Cite data limitations, restatements, and one-time events in open items
  • Do not change approved assumptions locally—request update through actuary and
    assumption-setting
  • Distinguish technical indication from implemented rate or posted reserve
  • Refer legal or filing questions to counsel; refer sign-off to
    actuary
  • 在精算师审核前,将工作成果标记为草稿分析师支持材料
  • 在未解决事项中说明数据局限性、重述事项及一次性事件
  • 不得在本地修改已获批假设——需通过精算师及
    assumption-setting
    流程申请更新
  • 区分技术指示已实施费率或已计提准备金
  • 法律申报问题提交给法律顾问;将签字确认问题提交给
    actuary
