ISO Statistical Plans An insurance company’s individual policies are the source of statistical data. This data contains fundamental information about insurance coverages and the premium and loss experience related to those coverages. ISO’s Statistical Plans provide you with data elements, how to code data elements, record layouts for reporting premium and loss information of policies. We maintain statistical plans for personal auto, personal lines (other than auto) and commercial lines. Each plan is broken down into two or three levels of detail for reporting data. This provides a reporting structure for both companies writing a small volume of business and for companies who need to report statistics in full detail. ISO’s Statistical Plans are as follows: Commercial Statistical Plan - CSP Commercial Minimum Statistical Plan (Intermediate and Mini Levels) - CMSP These two plans collect statistics for: Commercial fire and allied lines Farmowners Inland marine Medical professional liability General liability Commercial automobile Fidelity and forgery Glass Crime Equipment and Breakdown Earthquake Businessowners Separate modules (sections) of the Statistical Plans contain the reporting and coding instructions for each line of insurance in the plan.

ISO Statistical Circulars ISO offers three types of Statistical Circulars geared for your specific insurance use. Statistical Division Circulars (SD) provide general information that may affect an insurer’s operations. ISO’s comprehensive circulars provide you help with: -  To distribute annual statistical calls -  To outline potential future statistical requirements -  To notify companies of insurance department activities or legislative data reporting bills -  To survey out statistical reporting participants when we want their opinions on a particular subject Statistical Plan Circulars (SP) announce changes to the statistical plans, such as quarterly revisions. We mail these circulars only to statistical plan holders. Statistical Information Series Circulars (SIS) help insurance company personnel perform tasks related to reporting data to ISO. The circulars may answer commonly asked questions or help interpret new requirements. Because these circulars are sometimes very long, we send only one copy to each designated recipient of SP and SD circulars.
