A method of improving the loss ratio on a book of insurance including the
use of a computer data base with a user interface display including
questions for insured entities making up the book of insurance. Spaces
are provided on the display for the input of answers from an insured. A
survey is used to question the insured entity, the survey eliciting
answers to the questions posed. Data is input from the answers received
into the computer data base at the spaces provided for. The answers that
are collected are compared with answers contained in written documents
having information that was supplied by a third party insurance
underwriter. Inconsistent answers are identified and the information
obtained is reported to the underwriter who can determine whether or not
the insurance premium of the insured should be adjusted.
