The Objective of this study was to investigate the consumer attitude and purchase willingness of internet insurance. Data were collected from 412 adult consumers who had bought car insurance at least once. Results showed that respondents have positive as well as negative attitude toward internet insurance. The best thing of internet insurance seems tn be the low rate of insurance premium while the worst thing seems to be the risk of personal information disclosure. However, about two thirds of respondents answered that they were willing to purchase internet insurance if the insurance premium were discounted more than $25\%$ of what they paid offline. The more consumer attitude was positive, the more consumers were willing to purchase internet insurance. In general, consumer attitude and purchase willingness of internet insurance vary with consumers' demographic and socio-economic characteristics.

Recently with making of 'The Consumer Insurance (Disclosure and Representations) Act 2012(hereunder CIA)', the UK revised the duty of disclosure especially with the consumer insurance contract. According to the CIA, if the misrepresentation was careless, the insurer may have the three options based upon what the insurer would have done had the consumer taken care to answer the question accurately; a compensatory remedy, avoidance of the insurance contract or, amendment of the contract. I realized that the establishment of CIA has been exposed to pro-actively relieve the breach of Warranty and Disclosure, Representations as far as required by the Global Insurance market. It was found that it is expected to bring significant changes in UK Insurance Act system of the 21st century, and prepares competition from neighboring countries. On the other hand, in the common law system, countries under MIA(1906) are trying to address the breach of warranty and Disclosure, Representations, except the UK cannot completely adhere with a positive attitude.

This study investigates the effect of life settlement on the monopolistic insurance market. In particular, we consider liquidity cost, which is the cost incurred to the insurer to meet the request of surrender, and trading cost, which is the transaction cost of the policyholders for the settlement. We first show that the introduction of a life settlement can increase insurance demand and enhance consumer welfare even when the trading cost is higher than the liquidity cost. That is, even if the settlement market is less efficient than the insurance market, both insurance demand and consumer welfare can be increased. Second, the insurer's profit can also be increased when settlement is introduced because not only can the insurer save the liquidity cost but also the demand of insurance increases. Lastly, insurance demand does not always decrease when both costs increase. Depending on the population distribution over the liquidity risk, the demand of insurance can be increased or decreased.

본 연구에서는 보험소비자의 권리의식과 책임의식의 수준이 어떠한지 살펴보고, 권리 및 책임의식 수준에 따라 소비자를 유형화하여 유형별 의사결정 행동에 어떠한 차이가 있는지를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 이를 위해 생명보험협회의 '생명보험업의 민원발생유형 분석 및 소비자보호 강화방안'의 총 1,225명 데이터를 활용하여 확인적요인분석, 신뢰도분석, 대응표본 t-test, 교차분석 및 분산분석을 시행하였다. 연구결과 보험소비자의 책임의식은 권리의식과 비교했을 때 비교적 낮은 수준이었고, 권리의식에 상응하는 책임의식이 갖추어진 소비자집단이 더욱 합리적이고 주체적인 의사결정을 내리고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 보험소비자의 바람직하고 주체적인 의사결정을 위해서는 권리의식에 상응하는 책임의식을 강조하는 소비자교육이 필요함을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 소비자문제를 해결할 수 있는 보험소비자의 권리 및 책임의식의 제고를 위한 콘텐츠개발의 기초자료를 제공한다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 특히 금융소비자의 권리의식과 책임의식에 관한 연구가 다각도로 이루어지지 않은 상황에서, 권리의식만큼이나 책임의식이 중요하다는 것을 학술적으로 밝혔다는 점에서 더욱 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다.

The data used in this study include 432 households of 208 life-insurance purchasers and 224 non-purchasers Statistics used for the data analysis are x2, factor analysis, multiple regression and a discriminant analysis. The resulting major findings are as follows; 1) The evaluating attributes are saving function, convenience. economic payoff, safety for future accident, agreement of insurance, and reputation of brand. 2) Among these factors. the most important factors. in CS/D of life-insurance are saving function, and reputation of brand. 3) the purchase of life-insurance has been influenced by such sociodemographic variables as husband's age , family income, and family life-cycle. Psychological variables such as attitude of life, perceived risk, consumer attitude about insurance business did not influence the purchase of life -insurance significantly. As mentioned above, we can conclude that Korean purchasers of life-insurance are using irrational evaluating attributes. Therefore more education of the consumers and more information about life-insurance purchases are necessary. Especially low-income households and first step of family life-cycle families are turned out to need more education as well as more information.

본 연구는 보험소비자의 자발적 구매동기가 보험소비만족에 어떠한 영향을 주는지 확인하고자 하였다. 심리학의 자기결정성 이론에 근거하여 자발적인 구매동기를 유발하는 소비자의 심리적 욕구를 포함하여 보험소비만족에 대한 직 간접적 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 보험소비자 1,225명 대상의 온라인 설문조사 자료를 이용하여 구조방정식 분석을 통해 연구 가설과 모형을 증명하였다. 연구결과, 소비자가 구매의 필요성을 스스로 인지하는 자발적인 구매동기에 의한 구매시 보험소비만족이 높아지고, 보험소비자율성과 보험소비환경에 대한 긍정적 인지는 자발적 구매동기를 높이며, 이를 매개로 소비만족에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통하여 보험회사의 과도한 마케팅과 보험소비자의 자기과신은 보험소비만족을 저해할 수 있으며, 보험소비자의 자율적권리와 책임 인식을 높이는 금융소비자의 소비태도 교육이 필요하다는 시사점이 도출되었다.

A change in the consumer's surplus was measured in order to evaluate the social benefit to be derived from expanding health insurance to the entire population. The most refined and correct way to measure a project's net benefit to society is to determine a change in the consumer's surplus. Benefits from introducing the health insurance program to the uninsured people can be classified into two elements. The first is the pricing-down effect(E1) which results from applying the insurance price system, which is lower than the actual price, to the uninsured patients. The second effect(E2) is a decrease in actual payment because an insured patient pays only a portion of the total medical bill(copayment). We collected medical price information from the data banks of 93 hospitals, and obtained information of medical utilization by referring to the results of other research and from data published by the Korean Medical Insurance Societies. The total net benefit was estimated as \214 billion, comprising the first effect(E1) of \57 billion and the second effect(E2) of \157 billion. The price elasticity of physician visits is less than that of hospital admissions: however, benefits from the increase in physician visits are greater than those from hospital admissions because there are considerably more of physician visits than hospital admissions. The sensitivity analysis also shows the conclusion that expansion of the health insurance program to the entire population would result in a positive net benefit. Therfore, we conclude that the National Health Insurance Program is socially desirable.

본 연구는 건강보험의 본인부담상한제와 민영실손의료보험의 관계에서 야기되는 쟁점을 진단하고, 제도 개선을 위한 정책 과제를 제안하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 문헌연구를 통해 본인부담상한제 초과 환급금 미지급으로 인한 소비자 피해 실태와 건강보험 보장성 강화에 따른 실손보험의 역할 변화를 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 일방적 약관 해석과 불완전판매 관행이 소비자 권익을 침해하고 있으며, 실손보험의 보장 축소에도 불구하고 보험료 인하로 이어지지 않는 문제점이 확인되었다. 이에 상품 구조 합리화, 위험률 산출 투명화, 소비자 정보 제공 강화 등의 제도 개선과 함께, 건강보험과 민영보험의 합리적 역할분담을 위한 사회적 합의 도출이 시급함을 강조하였다. 본 연구는 의료보장체계의 발전적 재편을 위한 정책적 시사점을 제공한다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
