Dutch term

kans-op-nadeel

Dutch to English Bus/Financial Insurance Insurance schemes
Is there a specific translation of 'kans-op-nadeel' in insurance jargon or can I translate it literally?

Examples in source text:
1. Indien het spaar- of beleggingselement de overeenkomst zodanig beheerst, dat er in slechts te verwaarlozen mate sprake is van levens- en sterftekansen, wordt niet voldaan aan de definitie van een levensverzekering. Er dient sprake te zijn van een kans op nadeel als gevolg van het rekening houden met levens- en sterftekansen. De kans op nadeel kan worden bezien vanuit de positie van de verzekeringnemer of de verzekeraar.

2. Een verzekering met een uitkering bij leven voldoet niet aan de definitie van levensverzekering als de uiteindelijke uitkering slechts gevormd wordt door de tegenwaarde van de beleggingen. Er wordt niet voldaan aan het kans-op-nadeel-vereiste. De uitkering bij leven dient te worden verhoogd met een zogenaamde bonus, waarin de sterftekans is verdisconteerd.

Law of Large Numbers.
The foundation upon which insurance rests is the law of large numbers, also known as the law of averages. Experience has shown that a certain number out of a given group of properties will probably be destroyed by fire and other perils. The larger the group of individual properties exposed to the chance of loss, the greater the accuracy with which the approximate number of future losses can be predicted.
