French term or phrase: revalorisation

Comes at the end of "conditions particulieres" document as a heading:
"revalorisation des cotisations"
"XXX se réserve le droit de revoir, pour chaque échéance annuelle, les bases de tarification du contrat pour tenir compte des résultats "statistiques" enregistrés et de l'augmentation générale du tarif pour les risques garantis.

"adjustment" is "regularisation" so in this context I think that "revalorisation" must mean "increase" but it seems to mean different things in different contexts from the research I have done. Any suggestions welcome!

revaluation

Explanation:
The other terms suggested may be used also since they are considered synonyms, but they are neutral in connotation. Revaluation implies the notion of increase since value is adjusted to economic context.
