Abstract: An innovative approach to loss ratio forecasting is developed using a special type of semi-Markov process. Three levels of loss ratio are considered as the states of a semi-Markov process, and semi-Markov process methodology is employed for estimating transition probabilities of loss ratio levels transit from a predefined level to another one.
