Chance that an event will occur. The foundation of insurance is probability and statistics. By pooling a large number of homogeneous exposures an insurance company can predict with a given degree of accuracy the chance that a policyholder will incur a loss. The company reflects this expectation in the pure cost of insurance, known as the pure premium.
