A Survey of the Individual Claim Size and Other Risk Factors Using Credibility Bonus-Malus Premiums

In this paper, a flexible count regression model based on a bivariate compound Poisson distribution is introduced in order to distinguish between different types of claims according to the claim size. Furthermore, it allows us to analyse the factors that affect the number of claims above and below a...
