The insurer sets premia according to the buyer’s risk rating that is computed via Bayesian estimation based on buyer’s history of reported claims. Accordingly, the buyer has ...

In every period, a principal finances a project, choosing the scale of the project and a contingent payment plan for an agent, who has the opportunity to appropriate the returns of a successful project unbeknownst the principal. The absence of commitment is reflected both in the solution concept (perfect Bayesian equili...
