1. In General, this is the belief that something will happen based on a series of actions. 2. In Statistics, this is the likelihood, the average probability, of an unplanned occurrence.

Experience-based mortality-table-calculation of an average person’s number of remaining years of life, as of a certain age.

Mathematical formula calculating potential future interest rates. If the following equation is true: (1 + RLt) squared = (1 + RSt) ( 1 + RS*t+1), given RS is the 1-year interest rate,

A theory of INTEREST RATES indicating that the expectations of investors influence the TERM STRUCTURE of rates. Thus, if investors expect future rates will be higher than current rates, the YIELD CURVE

Statistical prediction on the number of claims that will occur in the contract year. T

The EXPECTED VALUE, or MEAN, of a statistical loss distribution function. The loss distribution function may be created to compute credit losses, INSURANCE losses, or other financial losses.

Total of the weighted payoffs as predicted outcomes related to one decision. The weightings relate to the likelihood, expressed as probabilities, of varied events generating the possible payoff. Mathematically, this is the

Mortality-table-based prediction of the likely, time-bound frequency of death in a specific group of people.

The method of predicting the likelihood, on average, of a gain from investing in a particular asset. Varying factors, representing market conditions and perceived asset worth, varies the predicted return.
