SQL Top 5 Renewal Policies

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Root wants to compare renewal performance across its auto insurance policy plans. Write a PostgreSQL query that identifies the five policy plans with the highest renewal rate.

Requirements

  1. Calculate renewal rate as completed renewed outcomes divided by all completed renewal outcomes, including not_renewed.
  2. Exclude pending and NULL outcomes from the denominator.
  3. Include only plans with at least two completed renewal decisions.
  4. Return the top five plans, ordered by renewal rate descending, then plan ID ascending to break ties.
