Q

If a policyholder cancelled their policy mid-term, why would an insurer often charge short-period rates for the period of cover?

A

The administration rates incurred in setting up the policy are high and the policyholder would be considered to have cost the common pool more than average and is, therefore, often charged more than simple pro-rated charges.
