BIP – base insurance premium amount. CTV – coefficient under the type of vehicle. EAC – coefficient according to the policyholder's driving experience and age. RC – coefficient according to the area where the vehicle is mostly used. LVC – coefficient according to life of the vehicle. VDC – coefficient for the number of persons with the right to drive the vehicle. BMC – coefficient by the BM class. 2.1.2. if the vehicle owner is a legal entity: IP = BIP x CTV x RC x LVC x LEC x BMC where, IP – one-year insurance premium amount. BIP – base insurance premium amount. CTV – coefficient under the type of vehicle. RC – coefficient according to the area where the vehicle is mostly used. LVC – coefficient according to life of the vehicle. LEC – coefficient for the fact that the vehicle owner is a legal entity. BMC – coefficient by the BM class. 2.2.

8.5.2. in Stage two the BM class of the IBMS is determined as follows: 8.5.2.1. if there was no insured event for which the insurance payment was made due to the fault of IBMS during the reporting period, his/her BM class is equal to the IBM class determined in accordance with sub-item 8.5.1 herein. 8.5.2.2. if due to the fault of IBMS, 1 or more insured events occurred over the reporting period, for which 1 or more insurance payments were made, his/her BM class is determined according to the corresponding IBM class, depending on the number of insured events, as per Table 6: 8.6. The BM class of the CFBMS is determined in two stages: 8.6.1. in Stage one the IBM class of the IBM class is determined as follows: 8.6.1.1. where the FC < AFC condition is met, the CFBMS’s IBM class is determined 1 level higher than its existing BM class. 8.6.1.2. where the FC < AFC condition is not met, the CFBMS’s IBM class is set at a level equal to its existing BM class. 8.6.2. in Stage two the BM class of the CFBMS is determined as follows: 8.6.2.1. where the condition of sub-item 8.6.1.1 herein is met, the BM class of the CFBMS is equal to the IBM class.

8.6.2.2. where the condition of sub-item 8.6.1.1 herein is not met, the BM class of the CFBMS is determined by rounding the number calculated according to the following formula to the nearest natural number: BM = IBM class x (1 – 100 x FC2/AFC) 8.7. The coefficient for the BM class in relation to the IBMS and the CFBMS (BMC) is applied as per Table 7: Table 7 BM class BMC 22 0.60 21 0.65 20 0.70 19 0.75 18 0.80 17 0.85 16 0.90 15 0.95 14 1.00 13 1.10 12 1.20 11 1.30 10 1.40 9 1.50 8 1.60 7 1.80 6 2.00 5 2.20 4 2.40 3 2.60 2 2.80 1 3.00 9.
