摘要
This study examines the asymmetric effect of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) on life and non-life insurance consumption in India using monthly data from April 2004-October 2020. The paper has employed a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) model with a structural break. The results reveal that there exists an asymmetric effect of EPU on life insurance as well as non-life life insurance consumption. A negative relationship is found between EPU and insurance consumption in both life and non-life insurance. Based on the findings, the study suggests the policymakers to consider the asymmetric effects of EPU while formulating insurance-related policies in India.
