frequency, severity, total dollar losses, maximum possible losses, probable
maximum losses (PML), and timing
high frequency, low severity
funded reserve (retain) or loss prevention
low frequency, low severity
unfunded retention
high frequency, high severity
avoidance, captive or risk retention group, loss prevention/reduction
low frequency, high severity
insurance or loss reduction
implement and monitor the chosen techniques

-reviews are needed to ensure expected results are achieved
-if needed, adjusts should be made
