报告摘要:In this talk, we discuss an optimal insurance problem from the perspective of a risk averse individual who faces an insurable risk as well as background risk and wants to maximize the expected utility of his/her final wealth. To reduce ex post moral hazard, we follow Huberman et al. (1983) to assume that alternative insurance contracts satisfy the principle of indemnity and have the marginal indemnity being non-negative but less than unity. When the insurance premium is calculated by the expected value premium principle, a necessary and sufficient condition for the optimal insurance solution is established under a general dependence structure between the insurable risk and the background risk. By virtue of this condition, the optimality of full insurance or no insurance can be easily justified, and optimal insurance forms are derived explicitly for some types of positive dependence, negative dependence and mixed dependence, which are found not to be always piecewise linear. Finally, an approach is introduced to improve an admissible insurance strategy under the general dependence assumption.
