The Credibility of the Pure Premium

Abstract
With two exceptions, the many papers on credibility which have appeared in the Proceedings of the Casualty Actuarial Society have been concerned only with the credibility of the number of claims. From Whitney to Mayerson the theory has been based on the distributions of the number of claims alone, ignoring the distribution of claim amounts.
