The risk that any previously published levels of estimated premiums may be exceeded, when assessed using the Association’s methodology for calculating the capital required, which is determined by taking into account premium risk, reserve risk, market risk, and other significant risk categories.
The wish to maintain a set structure for reducing the Release Call percentage for each policy year under normal circumstances.
