Insurance and reinsurance undertakings shall put in place processes and procedures to ensure that their best estimates and the assumptions underlying the calculation of their best estimates are regularly compared with experience.

Les entreprises d’assurance et de réassurance mettent en place des processus et procédures en vue d’assurer une comparaison régulière de leurs meilleures estimations et des hypothèses sous-tendant le calcul de ces dernières avec les données tirées de l’expérience.


Lorsque cette comparaison met en évidence un écart systématique entre les données tirées de l’expérience et les calculs des meilleures estimations de l’entreprise, celle-ci apporte les ajustements appropriés aux méthodes actuarielles utilisées ou aux hypothèses retenues.
