<abstract displayLabel="Summary">In this paper, it is used queuing theory to model the number of insured households in an insurance portfolio. The model is based on an idea from Boucher and Couture-Piché (2015), who use a queuing theory model to estimate the number of insured cars on an insurance contract. Similarly, the proposed model includes households already insured, but the modeling approach is modified to include new households that could be added to the portfolio. For each household, it is also used the queuing theory model to estimate the number of insured cars. It is analyzed an insurance portfolio from a Canadian insurance company to support this discussion</abstract>
