The ChainLadder package provides various statistical
methods which are typically used for the estimation of
outstanding claims reserves in general insurance. The
package has implementations of the Mack, Munich, Bootstrap,
multivariate, and chain-ladder factor models (CLFM),
as well as the loss development factor curve fitting
methods of Dave Clark and generalised linear model
based reserving models.
