The net loss reserves to surplus ratio is a financial metric used in the insurance industry to assess the adequacy of an insurer's reserves relative to its surplus. It is calculated by dividing the net loss reserves (the funds set aside to pay future claims) by the surplus (the difference between assets and liabilities).
