In edalmoro/ChainLadderQuantileV1: Statistical Methods and Models for Claims Reserving in General Insurance

ChainLadder

ChainLadder is an R package providing methods and models which are typically used in insurance claims reserving, including:

• Mack chain-ladder, Munich chain-ladder and Bootstrap models
• General multivariate chain ladder-models
• Loss development factor fitting and Cape Cod models
• Generalized linear models
• One year claims development result functions
• Utility functions to:
• convert tables into triangles and triangles into tables
• convert cumulative into incremental and incremental into cumulative triangles
• visualise triangles

David Hindley has created a Shiny App, which provides and interface to many of the ChainLadder package functions to accompany his book on Claims Reserving in General Insurance.
