incurred but not reported (IBNR) losses
An estimate of the amount of an insurer's (or self-insurer's) liability for
claim-generating events that have taken place but have not yet been reported
to the insurer or self-insurer. The sum of IBNR losses plus incurred losses
provide an estimate of the insurer's eventual liabilities for losses during
a given period.
