Hi there,
I am a bit confused with how we can assess the amount of capital to write a product.
The notes say that
"For each product, total up the model point profit flows for the expected new business (new business model). This will enable you to work out the capital required to write that product."
Can you please help me visualise this? If I sum up the expected future profit flows for a policy, wouldn't I be expecting a net positive cashflow? How do I determine the capital needed?
I'm not sure I understand how this model would work..
