    Hi,

    Can someone confirm to me the methods below and their types?
    - chain ladder (statistical method)
    - expected loss ratio (exposure method?)
    - bornfuetter-ferguson (credibiltiy method)
    - Average cost/claim (statistical method?)

    Thanks!

    Yes that's right. You can find a full description of each method in Chapter 15 of the Course Notes.

    Strictly speaking, the BF Method is an exposure-based statistical method as it is a credibility weighted average of the chain ladder and expected loss ratio methods.
