Abstract

The paper considers competition accounting in evaluation of effective strategy of insurance company with underwriting cycle.

Regions where the shifts of loss ratios occur are discovered. The values of the competitive effect of the trend for decreasing and increasing rates are estimated, and recommendations on the determination of competitive effect for reducing the effects of level shifts and loss in discovered regions are given.
