How Public Policy Can Define the Marketplace: The Case of Pollution Liability Insurance in the 1980's

The paper focuses on the role of marketing in public policy and illustrates that if public policy decision makers do not incorporate explicit consideration of both buyer and seller motivations, as well as other marketplace realities, they can work against their own objectives and stifle exchange. Prescriptive solutions to the availability crisis in pollution liability insurance are also presented.

A Neural Network Method for Obtaining an Early Warning of Insurer Insolvency
This article introduces a neural network artificial intelligence model as an early warning system... more This article introduces a neural network artificial intelligence model as an early warning system for predicting insurer insolvency. In order to investigate a firm's propensity toward insolvency, a feed forward, back-propagation methodology is applied to financial data two years prior to insolvency for a sample of U.S. property-liability insurers that became insolvent in 1991 or 1992 and a size-matched sample of solvent insurers. The results of the neural network method are compared with those of discriminant analysis, A. M. Best ratings, and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' Insurance Regulatory Information System ratings. The neural network results show high predictability and generalizability, suggesting the usefulness of this method for predicting future insurer insolvency.

Unfortunately, the unique characteristics of political risk make the application of familiar actuarially-based pricing models almost infeasible for valuating political risk insurance. In this article we employ utility theory instead to derive an equilibrium
