A logistic regression approach to estimating customer profit loss due to lapses in insurance
This article focuses on business risk management in the insurance industry. A methodology for estimating the profit loss caused by each customer in the portfolio due to policy cancellation is proposed. Using data from a European insurance company, customer behaviour over time is analyzed in order to estimate the probability of policy cancelation and the resulting potential profit loss due to cancellation.

Implications for understanding customer cancellation behaviour as the core of business risk management are outlined.Policy cancellation, customer loyalty, profit loss, customer behavior.
