Abstract

The aim of this paper is to operationalize claims reserving based on individual claims data. We design a modeling architecture that is based on six different neural networks. Each network is a separate module that serves a certain modeling purpose. We apply our architecture to individual claims data and predict their settlement processes on a monthly time grid. A proof of concept is provided by benchmarking the resulting claims reserves with the ones received from the classical chain-ladder method which uses much coarser (aggregated) data.
