| 520 | | | $aVenezia, Galai and Shapira in 1999 proposed a theoretical framework that considers asymmetric information to explain the co-existence of the independent agent and direct underwriting systems in the insurance market. In separating equilibrium, high-risk clients tend to purchase insurance through independent agents, whereas low-risk clients prefer dealing directly with underwriters. Using a unique data set from Taiwan's automobile liability insurance, this paper tests the screening mechanism hypothesis proposed by Venezia, Galai and Shapira. The results reveal that a positive channel-claim correlation exists in the subsamples of cars aged more than three years. Significant positive channel-claim correlation indicates that high-risk policyholders prefer to purchase insurance from an independent agent, whereas those with lower risks tend to buy insurance from direct writer channels. The results support the screening mechanism hypothesis and demonstrate that marketing channel choice could serve as a screening mechanism in an insurance market characterised by asymmetric information. |
