The Insurance Ireland fact file references a claims ratio of 71.5%. This means that for every euro taken in 71.05 cent is paid out in claims. The Central Bank reports states that the amount paid out is 59 cent, which is a significant reduction. For the previous year, Mr. Hassett claimed it was 82 cent, but the Central Bank report states it was 69 cent. They are not small margins of error.
