Updated: Added link to previous versions of the tables on the archived GAD website
These tables, complete with explanatory notes, are an aid for actuaries when calculating the lump sum to be paid in compensation for financial losses or expenses (such as care costs) directly caused by personal injury or death.
Widely known as the Ogden tables or GAD tables, they are prepared by a group of actuaries, including the Government Actuary, together with lawyers, accountants and insurers. They are currently in their seventh edition.
Hard copies of the tables are available from The Stationery Office.
Previous versions of the Ogden tables can be found on the archived GAD website.
