I.B.N.E.R.
Incurred but Not Enough Reported Reserve : A reserve reflecting expected changes (increases and decreases) in estimates for reported claims only (i.e. excluding any true IBNR claims).
I.B.N.R. (INR)
Incurred But Not Reported Reserve : Provision for claims incurred but not reported by the balance sheet date. That is, it is anticipated that there would be a number of policies that have, but for the advice of the claim to the insurer, occurred and therefore are likely to result in a liability on the insurer. The magnitude of this provision can be expected to reduce as the time since the insurance risk on the contract expired extends. The magnitude is also likely to vary depending on the type of insurance risk covered by any particular class of insurance contract.
I.C.A.O.

IATA Inter-Carrier Agreements on Passenger Liability
Following the 1995 Kuala Lumpur conference the IATA Inter-Carrier Agreement (IIA) waived limits on liability for injury to passengers. Subsequently, the IATA Implementing Agreement (MIA) waived the defence in Article 20 (all necessary measures to avoid the damage had been taken, etc.) of the Warsaw Convention up to 100,000 SDRs but the original Article 22 limits should remain in respect of public liability insurance or similar bodies. All UK carriers are required through their air transport licences to increase their limits to 100,000 SDRs. See INTERNATIONAL AIR TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION and EU REGULATION 2027/97.
