This paper proposes a new approximation to the aggregate claims distribution based on the inverse Gaussian (IG) distribution. It is compared to several other approximations in the literature. The IG approximation compares favorably to the well-known gamma approximation. We also propose an IG-gamma mixture that approximates the true distribution extremely accurately, in a large variety of situations.
