An Economic Analysis of Coopetitive Training Investments for Insurance Agents
The main purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of market demand uncertainty in the coopetitive insurance market. To that end, we build a game-theory model including training investments of insurance agents in an insurance market with demand uncertainty. We derive the following results from our analysis. First, insurance firms undertake less training investment if it is determin...

In contrast to the classical case of non-risky investments where the ruin probability decays exponentially as the initial endowment u tends to infinity, in this model we have, if ρ :=...
