Sinossi

  • Provides a clear exposition of the necessary mathematics, a feature which cannot be found in readers on the topic
  • Utilizes an undergraduate economics major level of math
  • Uses the simplest economic models possible to keep the text intuitive
  • Introduces more mathematically complex techniques such as basic optimization for students wishing to 'go further' in their analysis

Dalla quarta di copertina

The Economics of Risk and Insurance covers diverse issues such as risk aversion, expected utility, and information asymmetry within the pure theory of insurance. It then expands upon this framework to include crucial applied issues such as insurer’s organization, marketing channels, and insurance fraud, summarizing the important results in relevant literature. By keeping the level of math used in the analyses at the undergraduate economics-major level, and by providing proofs with fully explicated results, Seog has written a text that is highly intuitive to students.
