Remarks The Bornhuetter–Ferguson method has its origin in a paper by Bornhuetter and Ferguson (1972) and is highly popular, in particular in the United States. For a comparison of the Bornhuetter–Ferguson method and the chain ladder method from a Bayesian point of view and with regard to credibility methods we refer to England and Verrall (2002). In order to take better account of the run-off triangle, Benktander (1976) proposed a weighted mean of the loss development and Bornhuetter–Ferguson reserves.

In the iterated Bornhuetter–Ferguson method, the a priori estimators of the expected ultimate losses represent the loss expectation prior to the commencement of the development. These a priori estimators are then adapted to the run-off triangle by the iteration.

The Cape Cod method consists of two steps: • The expected ultimate loss ratio κ is estimated by the Cape Cod ultimate loss ratio κCC := n j=0 S j,n− j n j=0 v j γn− j Because of n κCC = j=0 v j γn− j n h=0 vh γn−h S j,n− j v j γn− j Cape Cod Method 45 the Cape Cod ultimate loss ratio κCC is a weighted mean of the estimators κi := Si,n−i vi γn−i of the expected ultimate loss ratio κ, with weights being proportional to the burnt premiums vi γn−i . • For every accident year i and every development year k such that i + k ≥ n + 1, the future cumulative loss Si,k is predicted by the Cape Cod predictor CC := Si,n−i + γk − γn−i vi κCC Si,k The definition of the Cape Cod predictors of cumulative losses replicates the identity E[Si,n−i ] E[Si,k ] Si,n − vi E E[Si,n ] E[Si,n ] vi = E[Si,n−i ] + (γk − γn−i ) vi κ E[Si,k ] = E[Si,n−i ] + which results from the Cape Cod model.
