This project was designed to attempt to predict the insurance cycle, specifically for Workers' Compensation. A process was created which involved regressing premium values against external economic indicators in order to predict future premium values. We tested the data several times using different modifications and groupings of the provided data. Our results were then compared against the unused data points. Finally, we recommended certain possibilities for further analysis or testing.
