The study employs metafrontier and four-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) to measure the overall and individual efficiency of life insurance companies in mainland China and Taiwan, after applying the slack-based measure (SBM)-DEA model to adjust the differences in the operating environment across production units. The empirical findings show the following: (a) The environmental factors significantly affected the efficiency of all life insurance companies. After the adjustments, the efficiency score of life insurance companies in mainland China and Taiwan drops for 14.01% and 26.64% in regi

Abstract:
This paper examines the impact of organizational structure and business strategy on company efficiency, profitability, and risk-taking behavior in the Taiwanese life insurance industry. The insurance industry in Taiwan provides an interesting environment for studying this issue because different organizational forms coexist in the insurance industry. We examine four different types of companies by organizational structure and two different business strategies. We use two frontier methodologies (stochastic frontier approach and data envelopment analysis approach) to measure the efficiency perfo

ABSTRACTThis paper shows how the powerful and flexible tool of stochastic modelling can be applied to a range of business decisions extending far beyond the asset allocation solutions that are common to many asset/liability modelling studies. The example used to demonstrate these techniques is a general insurance case study, but similar principles can be extended to many different business situations. At each stage of the analysis we consider the implications of modern financial theory on the management decision process together with a practical perspective on observed behaviour in the real wo

Abstract:
This study is conducted in two steps. Firstly, Stochastic Frontier Approach (SFA) is applied to estimate efficiency of the Takaful and conventional insurance firms in Pakistan from 2005 to 2010. It is found that life insurers are performing poor in comparison to general insurers. In addition, Takaful firms are found less cost efficient in comparison to conventional insurance firms. Secondly, the Tobit results imply that the size, investment and claim are found negatively related with the efficiency of insurance companies which suggests that larger size raise the cost of doing business whereas,

Abstract:
Both market power and efficiency contribute to the viability of the insurer, making them essential for the management of life insurance companies. This study measured efficiency using the stochastic frontier approach based on the translog cost function. We then investigated the relationship between efficiency and market power using generalized extreme value analysis. The results show a strong nonlinear, asymmetric dependence between efficiency and market power of leading Taiwanese insurers. In other words, companies with greater market power do not necessarily exhibit greater efficiency. This

Abstract:
To date there is little evidence on the relationship between property-liability (P/L) insurer’s frontier efficiency measures and the market. The establishment of a connection is important since there are a number of difficulties associated with measuring P/L insurer efficiency—there is uncertainty regarding the firm’s primary objective, the main services produced, and the measurement of these services. The main goal of the dissertation is to assess the robustness of two approaches to measuring P/L insurer efficiency —the production approach (Cummins and Weiss, 2001) and the flow approach (Broc

The thesis examines technical efficiency using frontier efficiency estimation techniques from parametric and non-parametric approaches. Five different frontier efficiency estimation techniques are considered which are SFA, DFA, DEA-CCR, DEA-BCC and DEA-RAM. These techniques are then used on an artificially generated panel dataset using a two-input two-output production function framework based on characteristics of German life-insurers. The key contribution of the thesis is firstly, a study that uses simulated panel dataset to estimate frontier efficiency techniques and secondly, a research fr

The pipeline industry operates at broad landscape and regional levels, and now has the opportunity to provide a strong lead in showcasing how society can benefit from major new energy pipelines while not significantly compromising natural and cultural values. To achieve this requires adoption of a fundamental proactive, ecosystem-based principle — the “Conservation First Principle”.
