Insurance
English term or phrase: pound swapping
The excess is the amount the Policyholder agrees to pay in the event of a claim. The excess reduces the premium and avoids “pound swapping” between the Policyholder and the Insurer for low level claims.

prêmios para pagamento de reclamações


Explanation:
In his European Commission ART Market Study, John P. Ryan of Tillinghast Towers-Perrin, cited the main factors leading to the growth of the alternative risk market. Those factors include the volatility of the conventional market, resulting in the withdrawal of capacity in that market following soft markets or catastrophe events; the high cost of conventional reinsurance at such times; lack of capacity for large natural catastrophes and certain specialized lines such as medical malpractice; reduction in the demand for "pound-swapping" (whereby premiums payable are essentially just used to pay claims).
