The Legend of the Price-Gouging Insurer
 |
The current hard market in the property/casualty insurance industry has led to higher premiums and more restrictive terms of coverage for many commercial buyers of insurance. Numerous factors are driving today's hard market and many of them are discussed in this presentation (e.g., terrorism, abuse of the tort system, health care inflation). The presentation also addresses and rebuts assertions by critics of the insurance industry that insurers are "gouging" consumers. In fact, insurance remains widely available and affordable.
The following presentation is called "The Legend of the Price-Gouging Insurer". It was presented by Dr. Robert P. Hartwig in November, 2002.
