Abstract
Autocalibration is a desirable property since it ensures that the information contained in a candidate premium is used without any bias. It turns out to be intimately related to the method of marginal totals that predates modern risk classification methods. The present note aims to assess the impact of autocalibration on the goodness of lift. It is shown on a case study that autocalibration does not only restore global and local balances but also improve lift.
