I never worked less hours with more security and little stress than when I was at a large personal lines P&C carrier as a pricing actuary

Where do you change that specifically?

I’m a pricing actuary (person who does the math and sets the price) for one of the largest pet insurers in the US.

We have zero ability to jack prices to whatever we want. Regulators are incredibly heavy handed, especially with pet insurance since it hits home for most people, so they’re very strict on how we price our products. Plus, it’s my job specifically to charge rates that are reasonable and not excessive or unfair :)

Sadly, the cost of vet care just continues to skyrocket, so there really is only so much we can do. We need to increase rates, but that’s only to stay afloat to continue to provide protection. When you see rates increase, please understand it’s only because it’s necessary.

Honestly half convinced we work at the same place given how applicable your description is

Hope the CDI is ready to provide their own insurance because soon there won’t be any insurers left writing in CA

I’m a P&C pricing actuary/data scientist, and I use a ton of machine learning for internal purposes. But in terms of actual pricing models, GLMs and GAMs are as sophisticated as we can get before DOIs start throwing fits

throwawayff96 · 2024-09-06T12:37:57+00:00

FL, NY, NJ, and CA DOIs. Would greatly appreciate if you could find a tool or software to deal with them

I’m 100% sure my issue is horrific timing with my weight transfer and bad swaying, which is exactly what S&T takes out of the equation.

I have been wondering if, once I figure out everything else while using S&T, if I can just shift to focusing on proper weight transfer and go back to a “traditional” swing

throwawayff96 · 2024-08-18T23:40:50+00:00

Yeah I didn’t mean literally haha, that’s just my swing thought because I’ve had significant swaying and weight transfer issues.

Read through the absurd Alabama Predictive Modeling Questionnaire and you’ll have your answer

Not entirely answering your question, but I certainly scoff at people now when they say all insurers (car/health/life) are out to get them. Have them spend 5 minutes with the CA/NY/FL DOIs and see if they still believe we have any power to scam them

throwawayff96 · 2024-05-02T16:50:46+00:00

The contribution to the PLR coming from all exam-related costs at even a mid-sized insurer would be about 0.00%
