Paying the Price

Paying the Price
By:Richard J. Roth, Sr.,Howard Kunreuther
Published on 1998-08-09 by Joseph Henry Press

This book considers the effectiveness of insurance coverage for low-probability, high-consequence events such as natural disasters--and how insurance programs can successfully be used with other policy tools, such as building codes and standards, to encourage effective loss reduction measures. The authors discuss the reasons for the dramatic increase in insured losses from natural disasters since 1989 and the concern that insurers have about their ability to provide coverage against more such events in the future. It addresses why there has been an increasing demand for hazards insurance, what types of coverage private insurers are willing to offer, and the role of reinsurance and private-/public-sector initiatives at the state and federal levels for providing protection to victims of natural disasters. Detailed case studies of the challenges facing Florida in the wake of Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and California following the Northridge earthquake in 1994 reveal the challenges facing the insurance industry as well as other concerned stakeholders. The National Flood Insurance Program illustrates how a public-/private-sector partnership can mitigate damages and provide financial protection to victims. The book identifies new initiatives for reducing future losses and providing funds for recovery through cooperation by the relevant parties.

|A reader's first impression on leafing through this book is of the large number of graphs and diagrams, used to illustrate shapes of distributions...and to show real data examples in various ways. A closer reading reveals a nice mix of theory and applications, with the copious graphical illustrations alluded to. Such a mixture is of course dear to the heart of the applied probabilist/statistician, and should impress even the most ardent theorists.| --MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS

Islamic Insurance Products

Islamic Insurance Products
By:Mohd Ma'Sum Billah
Published on 2019-07-26 by Palgrave Macmillan

The growth of Islamic finance today is undeniable given its services, product innovation, performance and achievements, with the Islamic insurance market being no exception; it has retained global market recognition in a parallel platform as Islamic finance moves forward. There is much written regarding the Islamic insurance system, but rarely do researchers present the various Islamic insurance products and their structures in one collective place. This book is a timely addition in meeting contemporary market demands by providing a much-needed overview of the Islamic insurance products and their Shari’ah compliant structures. This book would be of interest to academics, researchers, students and professionals who are seeking to understand the products offered.

The |Dematerialized| Insurance

The |Dematerialized| Insurance
By:Pierpaolo Marano,Ioannis Rokas,Peter Kochenburger
Published on 2016-08-03 by Springer

This book adopts an international perspective to examine how the online sale of insurance challenges the insurance regulation and the insurance contract, with a focus on insurance sales, consumer protection, cyber risks and privacy, as well as dispute resolution. Today insurers, policyholders, intermediaries and regulators interact in an increasingly online world with profound implications for what has up to now been a traditionally operating industry. While the growing threats to consumer and business data from cyber attacks constitute major sources of risk for insurers, at the same time cyber insurance has become the fastest growing commercial insurance product in many jurisdictions. Scholars and practitioners from Europe, the United States and Asia review these topics from the viewpoints of insurers, policyholders and insurance intermediaries. In some cases, existing insurance regulations appear readily adaptable to the online world, such as prohibitions on deceptive marketing of insurance products and unfair commercial practices, which can be applied to advertising through social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, as well as to traditional written material. In other areas, current regulatory and business practices are proving to be inadequate to the task and new ones are emerging. For example, the insurance industry and insurance supervisors are exploring how to review, utilize, profit from and regulate the explosive growth of data mining and predictive analytics (“big data”), which threaten long-standing privacy protection and insurance risk classification laws. This book’s ambitious international scope matches its topics. The online insurance market is cross-territorial and cross-jurisdictional with insurers often operating internationally and as part of larger financial-services holding companies. The authors’ exploration of these issues from the vantage points of some of the world’s largest insurance markets – the U.S., Europe and Japan – provides a comparative framework, which is necessary for the understanding of online insurance.

Coyote Blue

Coyote Blue
By:Christopher Moore
Published on 2009-12-15 by Simon and Schuster

From master of subversive humor Christopher Moore comes a quirky, irreverent novel of love, myth, metaphysics, outlaw biking, angst, and outrageous redemption. As a boy, he was Samson Hunts Alone—until a deadly misunderstanding with the law forced him to flee the Crow reservation at age fifteen. Today he is Samuel Hunter, a successful Santa Barbara insurance salesman with a Mercedes, a condo, and a hollow, invented life. Then one day, destiny offers him the dangerous gift of love—in the exquisite form of Calliope Kincaid—and a curse in the unheralded appearance of an ancient god by the name of Coyote. Coyote, the trickster, has arrived to reawaken the mystical storyteller within Sam...and to seriously screw up his existence in the process.

Automobile Insurance: Road Safety, New Drivers, Risks, Insurance Fraud and Regulation

Automobile Insurance: Road Safety, New Drivers, Risks, Insurance Fraud and Regulation
By:Georges Dionne,Claire Laberge-Nadeau
Published on 1999 by Springer Science & Business Media

Motor vehicle accidents are still a leading cause of death, even if the trend has somewhat declined over the past 20 years. Indeed, motor vehicle accidents are a significant cause of death in comparison with air and space transport accidents, homicides and even HIV infections, causes which are more often highlighted in the media. As shown in this book, motor vehicle accidents are particularly damaging to very young drivers. The assessment of driving risks is a common concern for road transportation safety and the automobile insurance industry. In both cases, there is an awareness of the great losses resulting from the deaths, injuries and property damage caused by traffic accidents. Research is essential to counteract this public health threat, to assess the success or failure of countermeasures, and to solve the problems it generates in the insurance industry. This book is for people concerned about road crashes (prevention and compensation) and about the insurance problems they pose - namely private and public institutional authorities, consultants, administrators, practitioners, and researchers interested in sharing the authors' experience in this domain. The book presents original contributions related to motor vehicle insurance and road safety. All papers have been evaluated by external referees. Four subjects are covered: 1) Automobile Insurance Pricing, Risks and Asymmetric Information; 2) Insurance Fraud; 3) Young Drivers: Licensing Policies, Evaluation and Risks; and 4) Road Insurance Regulation.

Internal Models and Solvency Two

Internal Models and Solvency Two
By:Paolo Cadoni
Published on 2014 by

Under the Solvency II directive, insurance companies are required to calculate their Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) in order to prove to supervisors, policyholders and beneficiaries that they have a high enough level of funds to absorb significant losses and to make payments as they fall due. They have a choice between a standard formula and an internal model in calculating their SCR. Many companies favour internal models as they are more risk-sensitive, capture individual risk profiles and therefore reduce the capital requirements placed on insurance companies by Solvency II. However, internal models are subject to approval by supervisory bodies. Insurance companies need to demonstrate that their internal model meets the use test, statistical quality standards, calibration standards, validation standards and documentation standards. Internal Models and Solvency II clarifies the requirements for practitioners and senior executives by providing regulatory and practical insight into internal models. Perspectives from both the supervisory and industry side gives unique insight into the spirit and rationale of the requirements, and are complemented by practical solutions to the daily challenges faced when reviewing and implementing internal models. Edited by Paolo Cadoni, currently Technical Head of the Insurance Policy Department at the Prudential Regulation Authority, this book provides support and solutions for the managers charged with implementing and validating their companies' internal models, helping readers to ensure the compliance of their models. Insurance supervisors will also be able to use this book to clarify the requirements when reviewing internal model applications. Internal Models and Solvency II gives readers a wider understanding of the history, challenges, philosophy, and future prospects of Solvency II internal models

By:James M. Dahle
Published on 2014-01 by White Coat Investor LLC the

Written by a practicing emergency physician, The White Coat Investor is a high-yield manual that specifically deals with the financial issues facing medical students, residents, physicians, dentists, and similar high-income professionals.

However, they receive little to no training in business, personal finance, investing, insurance, taxes, estate planning, and asset protection. This book fills in the gaps and will teach you to use your high income to escape from your student loans, provide for your family, build wealth, and stop getting ripped off by unscrupulous financial professionals. Straight talk and clear explanations allow the book to be easily digested by a novice to the subject matter yet the book also contains advanced concepts specific to physicians you won't find in other financial books.

Is Health Insurance Affordable for the Uninsured?

Is Health Insurance Affordable for the Uninsured?
By:M. Kate Bundorf,Mark V. Pauly
Published on 2002 by

In this paper, we investigate the meaning of affordability' in the context of health insurance. Assessing the relationship between the affordability of coverage and the large number of uninsured in the U.S. is important for understanding the barriers to purchasing coverage for the uninsured and evaluating the role of policy in reducing this number. We propose several definitions of affordability and examine the implications of alternative definitions on estimates of the proportion of currently uninsured who are unable to afford coverage. We find that, depending on the definition, health insurance was affordable to between one-quarter and three-quarters of the uninsured in 2000
