Abstract
⺠Consistency of the distribution-free chain ladder method is examined. ⺠Unbiasedness of the development factors can be of less importance than consistency. ⺠A necessary and sufficient condition for the conditional consistency is derived. ⺠Mean square error of the development factors' estimates is calculated. ⺠Real data example and numerical simulations are shown.
