Abstract
The probabilistic accumulation method is an independent and comprehensive approach for validating third-party catastrophe models. The method starts with a standard technique, namely, a limited scenario accumulation analysis, and extends the approach via a novel sampling methodology to evaluate the third-party models against a significantly larger data set. The sampling approach includes a technique for extending the fixed frequency and severity assumption used by the vendor catastrophe models. The result is a more complete set of loss estimates against which to evaluate the vendor model output.
