On Graduating Excess Pure Premium Rates [Discussion]

Abstract
Mr. Dorweiler's paper, explaining the method adopted by the Actuarial Committee of the New York Compensation Insurance Rating Board for graduating excess pure premium ratios by size of risk, serves two important functions. The first is to give a thorough exposition of a practical and sound method for smoothing a complicated tabulation of raw statistics in precise conformity with the pattern of behaviorism of the underlying data.
