Policy Deductible
When the non-proportional policy/business allows for a specific deductible for the claim (not included in the excess), this can be recorded on the Policy Deductible tab. The Policy Deductible will be considered in the FGU Calculation, and will be deducted from the FGU Advisory Amounts prior to the distribution.
Example:
Limit: 200,000 xs 125,000
Claim: 175,000
PD:25,000
Loss to layer:175,000 less 25,000 less 125, 000 = 25,000
