Título: The Market structure-performance relationship in the international insurance sector / Nat Pope, Yu-Luen MaAutor: Pope, Nat
Notas: Sumario: This article tests the applicability of the structure-conduct-performance (SCP) hypothesis in the international nonlife insurance marketplace. We employ a panel data regression methodology that includes 23 nations (developed and developing countries) over the time period of 1996 to 2003. The results reveal that the interaction of market liberalization and market concentration shares a complex relationship with market profitability. Our results show that the expectations associated with the SCP hypothesis are supported when the levels of liberalization are low. However, for markets that are highly liberalized the presence of foreign insurers significantly alters the dynamics of nonlife insurance marketsRegistros relacionados: En: The Journal of risk and insurance. - Nueva York : The American Risk and Insurance Association, 1964- = ISSN 0022-4367. - 01/12/2008 Tomo 75 Número 4 - 2008, p. 947-966Materia / lugar / evento: Seguros no vida Mercado de seguros Análisis empírico Internacionalización del seguro Otros autores: Ma, Yu-Luen
