Implementability in Insurance Markets with Adverse Selection

We consider an insurance market with hidden information, where the agent’s type is private information and is drawn from an arbitrary type space. We study implementability of a collection of retention functions, namely, how to select premium schedules so that the resulting menu of contracts is incen

Incentive Pareto Efficiency in Monopoly Insurance Markets with Adverse Selection

We study a monopolistic insurance market with hidden information, where the agent’s type $θ$ is private information that is unobservable to the insurer, and it is drawn from a continuum of types. The hidden type affects both the loss distribution and the risk attitude of the agent. Within this frame

Subgame Perfect Nash Equilibria in Large Reinsurance Markets

We consider a model of a reinsurance market consisting of multiple insurers on the demand side and multiple reinsurers on the supply side, thereby providing a unifying framework and extension of the recent literature on optimality and equilibria in reinsurance markets. Each insurer has preferences r

Stackelberg Equilibria in Monopoly Insurance Markets with Probability Weighting

We study Stackelberg Equilibria (Bowley optima) in a monopolistic centralized sequential-move insurance market, with a profit-maximizing insurer who sets premia using a distortion premium principle, and a single policyholder who seeks to minimize a distortion risk measure. We show that equilibria ar
