Abstract:
Insurance as a subset of the financial industry plays a critical function in economic growth of countries. The subsector drives economic sustainability through indemnification of the stakeholders covered in various policies. This is through recompense of parties with insurable interest thus insulation against economic losses. The insurance sector’s contribution to Kenya’s GDP is relatively low (2.24 percent in 2021) compared to other major sectors such as agriculture, but it can be considered as a key enabler particularly in minimizing financial losses in various sectors.

This article explores whether the alternative risk-transfer technique in the form of self-insurance can add value to the manufacturers that have self-insured for workers' compensation (WC) losses. The authors focus on publicly-owned manufacturers with at least 1,000 employees in California over the period 1970–2015 to examine the value implications of self-insurance adoption.

Regulators often impose rules that constrain the behavior of market participants. We study the design of regulatory policy in an insurance market as a delegation problem. A regulator restricts the menus of contracts an informed firm is permitted to offer, the firm offers a permitted menu to each consumer, and consumers choose contracts from offered menus. If consumer types and firm signals are ordered in a way that reflects coverage need, the regulator can leverage the firm’s information by forcing the firm to offer specified additional options on each menu.

Abstract:
This paper studies the effect of mandated employer-provided child care on the wages of women hired in large firms in Chile. We use a unique employer-employee database from the country's unemployment insurance (UI) system containing monthly information for all individuals that started a new contract between January 2005 and March 2013. We estimate the impact of the program using regression discontinuity design (RDD) exploiting the fact that child care provision is mandatory for all firms with 20 or more female workers. The results indicate that the monthly starting wages of the infra-marginal w

Abstract:
Small firm owners facing idiosyncratic shocks adjust production by cutting spending and reducing their demand for external workers. These shocks propagate to other local households with whom shocked firms trade inputs and labor through local supply-chain and labor market networks, leading to declines in transactions, income, and consumption. The total indirect effects are larger than the direct effects: a US$1 decline in a shocked households business spending reduces aggregate consumption by US$1.7. Both the direct and indirect effects are mitigated by incoming transfers to shocked households

Abstract:
The Colombian 2012 tax reform reduced payroll taxes and employer contributions to health insurance by 13.5%, while also increasing corporate income taxes, and leaving untouched the benefits to workers financed through these taxes. Shifting taxation from formal employment to other business activities is a policy recipe under heated discussion in Latin America. In this context, the reform offers an ideal laboratory to study empirically the potential distortions against formal employment associated with payroll taxes in contrast to other taxes to firms. Using monthly firm-level data on all formal

Abstract:
The study global objective is to provide an analysis of the efficiency of the Thai life insurance industry during 1990-1997. This research utilizes data envelopment analysis (DEA), a mathematical programming approach, to calculate efficiency. To investigate productivity changes, a Malmquist analysis is used to determine whether and the extent of efficiency changes. This study found that the Thai life insurance industry seems to have regressed in terms of efficiency after 1992. This drop in total efficiency was due to the inability of the average firm to keep pace with the best-practice life in
