Insurance – Loss Ratio
A measure of an organisation’s suitability for insurance coverage. Insurance underwriters use simple loss ratios (losses divided by premiums) as one of the tools with which to gauge a company’s suitability for coverage. In many cases, a high loss ratio—meaning one where the losses approach, equal, or exceed the premium—is considered bad.
