The charts below show the statistics on price changes for our largest
clients had the changes been in effect for years 2020 to 2024. The 10th
to 90th percentile are less than +-10% for all clients. The upper range
increases to about +13% for the 95th percentile, while a few cases
(mainly SCI), exceed that threshhold due to a higher allowed limit on
risk margin, which calculates a margin of between 20 and 30% for some
SCI cases. There were 13 such cases for the 4 largest carriers and 30
overall for the 5 year period.
