摘要
We put one of the predictions of adverse-selection models to the test, using data from the Danish automobile insurance market: that there is a positive correlation between claims risk and insurance coverage. We can find a statistically significant insurance coverage-risk correlation when coverage is expressed relative to the insurance premium, but not when it is expressed in monetary terms.
