On the Convergence Rate of Bonus-Malus Systems

Heikki Bonsdorff

ASTIN Bulletin, 1992, vol. 22, issue 2, 217-223

Abstract: Under certain conditions, a Bonus-Malus system can be interpreted as a Markov chain whose n-step transition probabilities converge to a limit probability distribution. In this paper, the rate of the convergence is studied by means of the eigenvalues of the transition probability matrix of the Markov chain.
