Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - An Investigation of scale economies, product scope economies and geographic scope economies in the global insurance industry

Publication: [S.l. : s.n.], 1995Physical description: 31 h. ; 30 cmNotes: Ponencia presentada en American Risk and Insurance Association Annual Meeting, Seattle, 1995Sumario: As domestic insurers become more global they will have to adapt their management, production and distribution systems. Such changes affect the operating costs of insurers. This study finds that scale economies are enjoyed by all global insurers with the exception of very large insurers which exhibit scale diseconomies. Product scope economies exist in the long term. Geographic scope economies become more prominent as global markets deregulate. A time series cross sectional sample of ninety-nine global insurers from 1984 through 1992 is usedMateria / lugar / evento: Internacionalización del seguro Empresas de seguros Estrategia empresarial Distribución de seguros Producción de seguros Conferencias Congresos Otros autores: Katrishen, Frances A.
