Subject: Uh, what study?
What is the ratio of claims losses to premiums earned?
The paper doesn't say. You know why? The ratio has increased disproportionately in favor of premiums earned.
On top of that, even the paper states that 20% of claims loss amounts is adjustment! That's just carrier inefficiency at its best driving up premiums.
For me, more intellectual dishonesty of this paper is striking. We can't have honest tort reform unless we have honest data. Data driven by the carrier profit motive ain't honest.
