Loss Development Factor

This is a recent development under retrospective rating plans. It was designed to give the insurer additional money to allow for the subsequent development of losses and to reimburse for claims which are late in being reported. The factor was introduced primarily because of the effect of inflation on losses which take a long time to settle. See also IBNR
