In this paper, value relevance of the level of dependence on separate accounts in non-life-insurance companies is studied. As noted by Shim et al. (2015), the separate accounts of insurance companies consist of contracts with different attributes from the general accounts, so it is likely that firm value will vary depending on the insurer's dependence on the separate accounts. Thus, in this paper, an empirical analysis has been conducted using quarterly financial data and stock price data from domestic listed non-life-insurance companies from 2011 to 2018. The analysis shows that variables representing the level of dependence on separate accounts have a significant negative relevance to firm value. These results may suggest that changes in the proportion of a non-life-insurer's separate accounts may result in a change to its firm value under the same net assets and net income scales in aggregate accounts. This study provides management implications for the operation of separate accounts from the perspective of maximizing firm value. In addition, this study suggests that disclosure system improvement would be necessary to more directly report the operational performance of the separate accounts.

The purpose of this paper is to assess the financial strength of general insurers by using A.M. Best's rating technique focusing on quantitative standards. A quantitative evaluation of fifteen larger general insurers' financial strength and operating performance relative to the Best's top group is carried out. The quantitative evaluation is done in 5 key areas; growth, efficiency, profitability, safety and liquidity. The results show that there is a big gap between domestic large insurers and American insures in all areas except stable growth of operations. Therefore, domestic insurers have to strive to strengthen financial soundness through profitability and should increase the capacity to retain more commercial business and reinsurance in order to become global players.

We analyzed efficiency and productivity of the Indian non-life insurance market affected by the COVID-19 pandemic from 2020. Using data envelopment analysis(DEA), we examined non-life insurance companies selling health insurance products in India from FY2013 to FY2019. We found the followings. First, average efficiency of the entire non-life insurance industry worsened in the beginning yet improved later. Second, analyzing the efficiency measures by group, we found that private insurance companies had the highest efficiency, followed by state-run insurance companies and pure health insurance companies. Third, average annual productivity growth rate of companies operating distance selling channels including telemarketing is higher than that of traditional face-to-face channels. During and after the COVID-19 pandemic, therefore, Indian non-life insurance companies should focus their resources and efforts on the development of distance selling channels when establishing business strategies. Besides, it would be interesting to extend our analysis to the post-coronavirus period and we leave this for future research.

In this study, 1) we compare face channel and non-face channel of life insurance company and non-life insurance company with insurance employs' suitability opinion about channel type, channel property, channel evaluation items requiring when selling insurance products, 2) we construct two social networks for life insurance companies and non-life insurance companies and find/compare two networks' properties, and then want to suggest any direction about sale channel strategy. As the result of comparing social networks of life insurance company and non-life insurance company created by insurance selling channel fit evaluation, employs of life insurance companies have more common opinion than those of non-life insurance companies and so can have more same directional channel strategy. However, property insurance companies need to manage their own channel strategy based on their own circumstance.

우리나라 손해보험 업계의 경영실적을 보면 2003년부터 2007까지 5년간 연평균 1조 1,130억원의 당기순이익이 발생하였으나 이는 투자이익에 기인한 것이고 손해보험사업 본업인 보험영업 손익에 있어서는 연평균 5,218억원의 손실을 기록하고 있다. 이와 같이 손실이 발생한 원인은 손해율 증감에 따른 보험요율의 조정미흡, 손해율상승 및 사업비 증가 등의 요인이 있으나 근본적인 요인은 해외 출수재의 불균등과 과다한 해외출재로 인한 수지차의 역조현상에 기인하고 있다. 특히 화재위험을 담보하고 있는 보험상품인 화재보험과 재산종합보험의 출재보험료는 약3,670억원으로써 전체 해외출재보험료에서 가장 높은 30.8%를 차지하고 있다. 이는 방재기술(Loss Control)의 활용미흡과 방재기술에 근간을 두고 있지 못한 보험인수 정책 즉 언더라이팅(Underwriting)기법의 낙후 때문이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 전통적인 보험 상품인 화재보험에서 보험인수시 물건의 위험도를 측정할 수 있는 화재위험도 평가기법이 필요하고 이를 근간으로 위험을 인수하고 보유의 규모를 결정할 수 있는 체계의 구축이 필요한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 특정물건의 화재보험 인수과정에서 건물에 내재된 잠재 화재위험의 고저 또는 양 불량을 판정할 수 있는 화재위험도 평가 모형을 개발한 후 이 평가 모형에서 산출된 화재위험도보유계수를 활용하여 보유금액을 결정할 수 있는 보험인수 모형을 도출 하였다.
