3. Basis-Annahme in Anwartschaft
3.1. Einheitliche Strukturannahme
Ein Blick auf die Anzahl der Verträge in Anwartschaft im Ultimatebestand der jeweiligen Tarife und Gesellschaften macht sofort deutlich, dass die Aussagekraft separater Strukturanalysen für einzelne Tarife und / oder einzelne Gesellschaften aufgrund der Größe des jeweiligen Bestandes einem zu starken Einfluss zufallsbedingter Schwankungen unterworfen sind.

ultimate (list of the respective) tariffs
Explanation:
I suggest that you retain the ultimate in the target term. After all, it's a loan word from English, used in the source term.

Bestand would be an 'inventory' or a 'portfolio', and although the phrases inventory of tariffs and portfolio of tariffs get their share of googles, they're used in contexts that are different from yours. An inventory is a detailed, itemized list, report, or record of things in one's possession, so I've suggested 'list' as a translation of Bestand in your context.

You could write ultimate tariffs for the queried term. For die Größe des jeweiligen Bestandes that comes up later in your sentence, say size of the respective tariffs. The phrase size of the tariffs googles well.

What Does Ultimate Mortality Table Mean?
A mortality table that lists the death rates of insured persons of each sex and age group and excludes data from policies that have been recently underwritten. An ultimate mortality table also lists the proportion of individual survival from birth to any given age. Insurance companies use these tables to price insurance products and ultimately the profitability of these insurance companies depend upon correct analysis of the table.
